Annoying pop-up box (5 posts)

  • I have created a static website with Wordpress for a client.  I used the Weaver II theme.  I get this annoying pop-up box that I cannot get eliminate. It looks like it is the initial blog post that I thought I deleted.  I can’t find anything in the settings about not showing.  Could someone please help?

  • Hey Dee,

    The popup is triggered via a certain javascript file. If you delete that from being called in your header.php file or the theme file that is pulling it in the popup should not trigger anymore.

    I’ve created a text file with the code from your page and inserted two large comment blocks indicating a start and a end

    “START lbx_overlay related and can be deleted”

    Everything between these two blocks can be deleted (including the comments)

    “END lbx_overlay related and can be deleted”

    The issue for you might end up being that you don’t know what file this code is located in.

    Depending on the software you are using you could be able to do a search for a text string within multiple files or folders. I use Dreamweaver and I can do this.

    If you are not able to search multiple files you could always open each one up and use “ctrl f” (see tip below)

    Here is my guess on it’s location public_html > wp-content > themes > Weaver II > header.php

    If it is not located in this file it will be in some file within the Weaver II folder.

    Tip: if you’re on a PC you can use “ctrl f” to find any text string on a page.

    Let me know if this works for you or if you have any questions. Jules

  • remove this from your pagediv id=”lbx_fade” class=”lbx_overlay” onclick =down topop/iframe.php” class=”lbx_iframe” scrolling=”no” /iframe /div>I removed some signs so the text will post

  • Thanks for all of your help.  I was unable to find the code in the edit options.  I looked in the header, css and many of the other options that seemed like they could be the “right one”.  I just switched the whole theme back to Weaver instead of Weaver II.  Then I refreshed and the box disappeared.
