Hello,
I need a simple modal popup when a link is clicked. I tried the example from the Bootstrap website but it didn't work because I don't know how to properly integrate it into Phoenix.
Thank you.

There are a few examples that show how it is done in PRO Supporters Addons e.g. IIRC s02e06 Product Terms has a product_info module that has that behaviour.

Thank you for your help. I'm still stuck. I don't know where to begin or where to place the code.

What page(s) do you want the pop to appear on?

I just want it to pop up when a link is clicked. For example, "Learn more".
It will be in a header module.
Thank you.

You could read this as it walks you through how to do this in bootstrap.

Thanks. I read that. My issue is where to place that code. Then I know there's some .js that goes along with it. My guess is to place both pieces of code in the module.

Why not copy includes/modules/content/header/cm_header_buttons.php and the files associated with it? Rename to the new situation..you don't need part of the code in the template file anymore and delete it and replace the code for the popup, translate properly en turn on in the admin en no core changes :-)

There are a couple of examples of modal in the core code, off the top of my head there is;
1 in advanced_search
1 in create_account (and the same one in checkout_confirmation)
The advanced search one would be easiest to follow I think.
