Hello

There may be other ways to have your form pop up in a module. But if you use the nonumber modal plugin here's how I did it. It turned out to be very easy. (After Googling all over the place trying to figure out a way to do it!)

I have the professional (paid) version of the nonumber modal. Perhaps the free version will also work. I haven't tried the free version.

You paste the below code into your Joomla article. Make sure the code is clean and has no hidden characters in the html. The source should look the same as the HTML. (I always copy plug-in code such as the below into a WIndows NOTEPAD (not wordpad) first and then copy it from notepad into my joomla article.)
{modal index.php?option=com_rsform&formId=26|iframe=1|width=700|height=700} This works!{/modal}

The above code will do it. Note that in order to work with a thank you message you need to use the nonumber parameter "iframe"

I included the width and height of the modal. That is not required -- but it helps keep the modal a reasonable size. Note that the rsform ID is, in my case 26. That would change depending on the Form ID of your RS Form.

You can't easily use RS forms redirect to a URL within the modal. Well you can do it, but it tries to show the entire page, which doesn't look good. So it's best you use the Thank You message instead. That works fine. I suggest you Select "NO" for the Continue Button. (All of this is in your form's Property Panel "Form info" section.)

Will other modal plugins work? I don't know. But here's a link to the nonumber modal page: NoNumber modal plugin

Thanks for this. I tried using yootheme's UIKIT Modal pupup (Bootstrap) and it worked too. Thus I guess any modal will work.

Hi Rowby and many thanks for your tip.

I can confirm, that it is also working with the FREE version of Modals, tested with 4.11.0.
