Evm Simple Modal Message

On this tutorial we will show how to add a Modal Message and how it works.

Evm Simple Modal Message is a lightning component that uses Vuejs and JavaScript to display the message in a Lightning Page.

You can install EvoluteMessage App from the Salesforce AppExchange. All of Our Price Plans include this message for Free and with no limits. So we recommend you install and use the Freemium Plan, which is free and you will have access to this message and more.

Here is an example on how the Evm Simple Modal Message looks:

Permissions and Security:

Evm Simple Modal Message like the Evm Simple Toast Message, does not require you to add any Permission Set to each end-user. This is not required because the message that you configured stays in the component itself, which you have dragged in your Lightning Page, and nothing is saved in any object.

All the content of the Message is set by you and all the information stays in your org, nothing goes outside and we don't collect any information from your page.

How it works

Evm Simple Modal Message renders by using the EvoluteMessage Engine, which is built using Vuejs and JQuery. All the content that you set in the message is saved into the aura component that is in your Lightning Page. The message accepts HTML tags into the message.

The steps to add a message into your lightning Page is very simple:

1. Download the EvoluteMessage App into your Org from the Salesforce AppExchange.

2. Once installed, go to your Lightning Page where you want to add the message and search for Evm in the list of Components.

3. Drag and Drop the Evm Simple Modal Message into your page.

4. Click on the component that you dropped, which will open some configuration.

5. Configure the text that you want to show and other options.

6. You should see your message rendering on the Builder side as well.

7. Once your message is good, uncheck the checkbox that makes the message to render all the time.

8. Save and Publish and all your users are good to see the message.

Limits:

Here are some limits that the Evm Simple Modal Message has:

Limit #1 - If you need more advanced filters to show or hide your message, the only available filter is the Salesforce out of the box "Set Component Visibility".

Workaround: If you need more criteria or advanced filters, you will need to use the Evm Advanced Message, or use a custom field and use flow to set that field, so you can use that new field into the Component Visibility.

Limit #2 - You cannot Prefill data from the Page or any record into your message.

Workaround: This feature is available only in Evm Advanced Message, which you can get records from the current page or from any objects.

Limit #3 - You cannot change the colour of the messages, we use always the same standard color as Salesforce.

Workaround: Evm Advanced Message has the option for you to change the message style if you need to match with your Community/Digital Experience Site.
