EMC2 Alert Boxes uses jQuery and HTML5 animations to provide a great-looking, simple and functional alerting system. Alert boxes can be placed using the [emc2alert]
shortcode or by calling the $().emc2alert()
jQuery function!
Check the demo at http://alert.emc2innovation.com !
Easy to use! Insert a shortcode on any page using a quick-create TinyMCE icon, or create alerts on the fly using jQuery:
Shortcode: [emc2alert]This is some text![/emc2alert]
-or-
jQuery: $('body').emc2alert({ text:"This is some text!" });
Advanced Usage
Shortcode
[emc2alert type="success" style="normal" width="300px" position="top" wpbar="auto" visible="visible" closebtn="1" title="Introducing..." animate="true"]A great way to alert your visitors![/emc2alert]
Defaults:
- type: "info" - "success", "warning", "error" also available
- style: NULL - "normal" displays as block at shortcode location, or "fixed" for top or bottom of page
- width: NULL - accepts position with units, ie "300px", "100%" or "5em"
- position: "top" - If style="fixed", position can be set to top or "bottom" of page
- wpbar: "auto" - Auto-detects WP Admin Bar. Can be set to TRUE or FALSE as well to set compensation.
- visible: TRUE - Set to FALSE to hide
- closebtn: FALSE - Set to TRUE to add a close button to the box
- title: "Alert Title" - Box title
- animate: FALSE - Set to TRUE to enable slideUp() and slideDown() jQuery animations on open and close!
jQuery
$('body').emc2alert({ // Prepends Alert Box to 'body' element
title: "Your Title", // or $('myTitleDiv').html()
text: "Your Message", // or $('myMsgDiv').html()
type: "info", // 'info', 'warning', 'error', 'success' - determines bg colors
style: "normal", // 'normal', 'fixed' - in page or fixed to top or bottom
visible: true, // true, false - hides if necessary
position: "top", // 'top', 'bottom' - positions box on page
width: null, // '100%', '960px' - specify units
closebtn: false, // true, false - displays close button in corner
wpbar: false, // true, false, 'auto' - adds top margin to avoid admin bar, with auto-detect
animate: false // true, false - adds open/close animation
});
