The ‘Open Modal’ action opens further pages in the Modal itself, rather than in the main window. Eg. if I use modal to open the Sign In box/page on my website, the customer portal post-login opens inside the same modal. How I expect it to behave is that, after signing in inside the modal, the modal should go away and redirection to the signed-in customer portal should happen in the main window.
Not sure if this is indeed the intended behaviour, but in its current state, the modal action seems useful only to display popup tooltips etc.
I made the sign-in page & Customer dashboard page in 1 app on Softr. When I open the sign-in page using the new ‘Open Modal’ action and sign in, the dashboard opens within that same modal.
How I expect it to work is exactly how Login on this forum (community.softr.io) works.
It has been a few weeks since I last tried it, but I haven’t seen any updates addressing this, so I believe the behaviour is still the same as described above.
We are having the same error. It’s not a good UX. It sends the user to our homepage in the Modal after they sign in. Worse still, if they close the modal, they’re not logged in.
Our current work around is to have TWO sign-in pages: one that is just for Modals and gives the user the instructions to close the popup and refresh the page they were on…
Hope it will be fixed soon!
