Buttonizer Javascript API, anyone get it to work? No luck here...

NickHenny

I can't make this work...
https://community.buttonizer.pro/knowledgebase/435-buttonizer-javascript-api

When the button group loads initially it has a class that starts with "buttonizer-closed"....hmmm. Then, if you call window.Buttonizer.Open() and it changes it to buttonizer-open"...which it already is open and displayed. If I call the close, it's back to the original class..but no display difference. Started looked at buttonzier css, I don't show they try to hide it, have display set to "flex" even when "buttonizer-closed". I wrote extra css to override, but still a major pain...anyone have better luck? Maybe I'm doing something wrong...

Hi NickHenny ,

Thanks for reaching out to us!

I took a look at your site and it looks like your button group only has 1 button.

When the button group only has 1 button, Buttonizer will just show that single button instead of placing it inside a button group. The buttonizer-closed and buttonizer-opened classnames should not have an affect on the single button.

This is what a button group with more than 1 buttons looks like:

It has a menu button that collapses or expands the group. This is what the Javascript API is for. The window.Buttonizer.open() api will open all of the button groups that is on the screen and window.Buttonizer.close() will close them.

Did you perhaps had an issue before you had to write the extra css that you were trying to solve?
If so, please let us know! We would like to help to fix it. 😄

Gotcha, so I guess I was trying to use it wrong. I wrote css to hide the button since there doesn't seem to be the ability to detect if the user is logged in or not and make a smart decision based on it. Either way, appreciate the response. Basically, I want to display a different group of buttons based on whether user is logged in or not on a particular page

We have an option in our page rules that let you choose which user roles can see/not see the buttons.
You can also use page rules to specify which page you would like it to appear in.

This condition type is only available through the editor in the Buttonizer WordPress plugin.

We have a video explaining how page rules work here:
Advanced: Page rules explained

The editor is a bit outdated in the video but the general layout and way page rules work should still be the same. 🙂

Thanks, I've got a good handle on the rules - unlike the open/close button group 🙂 LOL

I wrote code hide/show different buttons based on logged in user as that is not currently a rule that is available. I don't think role will give me what I'm really needing but I'll play around with it. Again, much appreciate your timely and helpful responses.
