Modal

The modal block is a popup or dialog that appears over a page's content. It can be interacted with to exit it and return to the page.

Basics

The modal block is essentially an overlay background and a div block.

The modal block will appear inline (beneath or above) when using the editor so that editing is easy and intuitive. On the front-end, the modal block will be rendered overlaying the other elements of the page.

To hide/reveal the modal block, simply toggle the "eye" icon in the Cwicly Navigator.

It is not advisable to add a modal block inside a parent block as this will create errors.

Modal Menu

You need to add a Menu to your modal block before you style it.
