Add Link for Popup
Don Higbee
Great enhancement adding target capability to the link creation. Hoe about taking it one step further and adding "open popup" to the options. Just like you can do with a button.

This would be an excellent feature to add. Thank you for considering it and allowing us to vote on it!
Little backstory on why I feel it would be valuable in my scenario. I have about 3-4 CTA buttons going down my page. After the testimonials I wanted to do a softer CTA so I thought using a link would do the trick. Sadly, I can't do it.
Now, I'm going to try to modify a button to make it not look like a button. That might work. <-- Worked for me... it doesn't show up as a link, BUT I made the background of the button transparent, and set the text color(s) how I wanted.

Yes! It's frustrating that we can't do this yet.

Christy Allison You can make the button background transparent and set the color of the text to match your link colors. It won't be underlined, but not all links on all sites are. It's a good alternative.

Jarvis Stubblefield That's not helpful on links within text blocks. I have clients that are used to this functionality and expect it and don't want to revamp their content to include buttons where they didn't need to use them before.

Christy Allison Totally makes sense. Sorry my trick wasn’t helpful in your scenario!
I still think this is a valid and useful request. Just to be clear!

This would be helpful for terms and conditions, and privacy policies, for example.

Being able to call a popup from a text link would be a great feature.

Yes this is a basic feature. Please add this so we can open the popup with a #link on the page for more flexibility within call to actions on any font.

Jarvis Stubblefield ok thank you! I also solved this by adding custom code.

Seth Thurston Excellent… I’ve not done any custom code with HL yet, but as a software engineer, that’s right up my alley.
