Hi @iam_mullan, I just now found a solid answer for your question. Sharing now incase anyone else comes along with a similar question.

This solution combines the native Webflow tabs component with MemberScript #31 to create an easy-to-use modal with tons of benefits.

Benefits:

:white_check_mark: Open any modal with a link. Try it
:white_check_mark: Easy to design & hide.
:white_check_mark: Multiple per page.
:white_check_mark: No Webflow Interactions.
:white_check_mark: Works with Webflow CMS.
:white_check_mark: Works with Rich Text elements.

Here’s a link to the cloneable project.

Here’s the tutorial video:

I hope this helps!

Hi Duncan,

Late to reply but I was wondering how does this work in Webflow CMS? I tried to use it within my rich text element in my CMS, but doesn’t seem to work.

Thank you!

SA5’s Trigger lib bridges those links. Think of it as a “proxy click”. You build your modals with hidden trigger buttons, and then in your rich text, you make a link like ##trigger1, which will invoke the modal with the same name.

We use it often for clients who need a CMS-driven glossary of terms or who want quick popups for the executive team, that sort of thing.
