Can This be Done with a Wordpress Theme

Hey Everyone-

I'm trying to incorporate a particular functionality into a Wordpress theme, and I'm wondering if it's possible.

A good example is Promotions and Coupons | Monro Muffler Brake and Service

Notice how the coupons "pop up" in a square as opposed to linking to a whole new page. Then you can print that page, share it to Facebook, etc.

Can this somehow be incorporated into a site that uses a Wordpress theme?

Any help/suggestions are appreciated.

Matt

    Well, the site you referenced isn't actually built using a Wordpress theme, so I would imagine you would need to have the function custom programmed. It's pretty neat though ..

    It's done with JavaScript and, yes, you could do it but it would need to be specially coded by a JS developer.

    lightbox plugins can make it pop out, but I haven't investigated the print option.

    The WordPress › Simple Lightbox « WordPress Plugins plugin may do the trick - it supports themes/templates and adding HTML.

    Then you can perhaps add something like this to the popup template to print the coupon:
    Code:
    <a href="javascript:window.print()">Print This Coupon</a>

    That is just fancybox. fancybox.net
    it can be manually added, or there is probably a plugin.

  • Use a lightbox and make the images pop up. Have a print button in the lightbox if you want people to print it.
