==Install==

===Basic=== The following will ajax in a complete page/file

'''HTML''' click to view

'''jQuery''' $('.overlay').mtcOverlay();

===Element on the same page=== The following will load in an element on the same page

<ul>
    <li class="grid_3">
        <a class="mtcOverlay" href="#popup1" data-no-ajax="true">View</a>
    </li>
    <li class="grid_3">
        <a class="mtcOverlay" href="#popup2" data-no-ajax="true">View</a>
    </li>
</ul>

===Element within another page=== The following will ajax in an element within a page

'''HTML''' click to view

'''jQuery''' $('.overlay').mtcOverlay();

===Popup title=== The following will add an image to the overlay. *displaying image or video(single or gallery) *data-title attribute on link

As of version 0.7 there is no need to set a flag in the plugin options, title is read automatically if present. '''HTML'''

'''jQuery''' $('.overlay').mtcOverlay();

===Gallery of images=== The following will add a gallery to the overlay with titles on each image. *The image src must have an extension of jpg, jpeg, png or gif. *The alt tag will become a title. this can be left blank if none provided. *Each link must have a rel attr applied to it. This rel attr should be the same for each image in the same gallery *for older overlay versions try using rel instead of data-rel if it's not working right away

'''HTML'''

'''jQuery''' $('.overlay').mtcOverlay({ gallery: true });

===Changing Slick Options=== There must be an active gallery as that is only when slick is used. Any option available to slick normally is available here.

As if version 0.4 slick is depricated.

'''jQuery''' $('.overlay').mtcOverlay({ gallery: true, slick: { dots: true, arrows: false } });

=== Closing the overlay from another script ===

If you want to close the overlay on another event a simple method is triggering a click on the overlay close button (you may need to change the class if you have overridden it).

'''jQuery''' $('.overlayCloseButton').trigger('click');

===Video Options===

If video mode is set to true this supports Vimeo and Youtube, just paste in the url into the href and it will take out the video ID's automagically.

Such as: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSFgolB7HHE Or: https://vimeo.com/22212265

Options that can be applied:

Autoplay is default by false. Width and height are also self explanatory.

===Video Gallery===

As of version 0.6 it's possible to add youtube/vimeo iframes to the gallery.

Such as: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSFgolB7HHE Or: https://vimeo.com/22212265

To enable videos in the gallery initialize plugin like this:

In the markup set the data-video to true for the video items. This is example of mixed galley of images and videos: View image View video View image

===HTML Gallery===

As of version 0.6 it's possible to add youtube/vimeo iframes to the gallery.

Such as: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSFgolB7HHE Or: https://vimeo.com/22212265

To enable videos in the gallery initialize plugin like this:

In the markup set the data-ajax to true for the items: View View

If instead of using ajax you would like to show gallery from hidden blocks, simply use data-no-ajax instead of ajax and use selector in the href attribute:

<ul>
    <li class="grid_3">
        <a class="mtcOverlayGallery" href="#popup1" data-no-ajax="true" rel="GALLERY_NAME">View</a>
    </li>
    <li class="grid_3">
        <a class="mtcOverlayGallery" href="#popup2" data-no-ajax="true" rel="GALLERY_NAME">View</a>
    </li>
</ul>

===Open programmatically===

Version 1.0 added programmatic call to overlay - it now can be opened anywhere from javascript code with $.openMtcOverlay. All usual modes are available apart from gallery. Some examples of calls (note how overlay is called)

 $('.js_openOverlayImage').on('click', function (e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    $.openMtcOverlay({
        target: 'http://placehold.it/1024x600.png',
        image: true
    });
});

$('.js_openOverlayYoutube').on('click', function (e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    $.openMtcOverlay({
        target: 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Wh8RzcQZr4',
        video: true
    });
});

$('.js_openOverlayVimeo').on('click', function (e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    $.openMtcOverlay({
        target: 'https://vimeo.com/116046838',
        video: true
    });
});

 $('.js_openOverlayIframe').on('click', function (e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    $.openMtcOverlay({
        target: 'http://www.mtcmedia.co.uk/',
        iframe: true
    });
});

$('.js_openOverlayAjax').on('click', function (e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    $.openMtcOverlay({
        target: '/core/css/layouts/plugins/overlay/plugin_includes/mixed_popup.twig',
    });
});

 $('.js_openOverlayBlock').on('click', function (e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    $.openMtcOverlay({
        no_ajax: true,
        target: '#popup2',
    });
});

===Fullheight iframe popup=== This mode is useful for displaying stuff like pdf's in popup. Overlay code: Open

pdf popup code:

js code: $('.js_pdfOverlay').mtcOverlay({ fullscreen_iframe: true });

==Tips and tricks== ===Calling resize manually=== This is needed when popup has forms, and it changes the height on error or success messages. Overlay is bind to window resize, so one can trigger its resize function by: $(window).resize();

if one needs trigger ONLY overlay resize then: $(window).trigger('resize.overlay');
