Alligator Menu Popup vs Content Blocks (Custom Post Widget)

This is a fork of my similarly named Alligator Popup Plugin. Unlike the original plugin, this one enables you to open the target of a menu item of your WordPress custom menu in a popup window. Add the ‘mpopup’ class to a menu item in a custom menu to open the target in a popup Window. Enables you to specify that a menu item on your WordPress custom menu will open in a new popup window. An admin page allows you can control the size of the popup window and whether it has scrollbars. Usage: You will find the Menu Popup Settings Page at Settings => Menu Popup Set the dimensions of the popup window and whether you want the popup window to be scrollable Then edit your custom menu at Appearance => Menus * Enable the CSS Classes option in the Screen Options pull-down panel on the menu editor page. Add the mpopup class to any menu item where you want the target page to open in a popup window. When the menu item is clicked, the link should now open in a popup window.

The Content Blocks allows you to display the contents of a specific custom post in a widget on in the content area using a shortcode. Even though you could use the text widget that comes with the default WordPress install, this plugin has some major benefits: The Content Blocks plugin enables users to use the WYSIWYG editor for editing the content and adding images. If you are using the standard WordPress text widgets to display content on various areas of your template, this content can only be edited by users with administrator access. If you would like non-administrator accounts to modify the widget content, you can use this plugin to provide them access to the custom posts that provide the content for the widget areas. You can even use the featured image functionality to display them in a widget. The Content Blocks plugin is compatible with the WPML Multi-Language plugin and automatically shows the correct language in the widget area. The Content Blocks can be included in posts and pages using the built-in shortcode functionality. This plugin creates a ‘content_block’ custom post type. You can choose to either display the title on the page or use it to describe the contents and widget position of the content block. Note that these content blocks can only be displayed in the context of the page. I have added ‘public’ => false to the custom post type which means that it is not accessible outside the page context. To add content to a widget, drag it to the required position in the sidebar and select the title of the custom post in the widget configuration.
