Any options/tricks for minimizing the side menu when opening a pop up from a rich text button?
What I notice is if the side menu is expanded in my parent page it will also be expanded in the pop up... ideally I want to always minimize the side menu in a pop up
Qrew Legend.. are you using New forms or Legacy forms?
Qrew LegendI have an idea that might work. Can you post the code for the Rich Text field?
New Forms
Much appreciated Mark. Below is the html portion I'm currently using for that button
"<div style='display: flex; background-color: #3e62d6; padding: 5px 15px; font-size: 12px; border-radius: 25px; width: 200px; height: 30px; align-items: center; justify-content: center;'><a style='color:white; text-decoration: none;' class='OpenAsPopup' data-height=500 data-width=750 data-refresh=true href='" & $url & "'>Add Sales Approval</a></div>"
Qrew LegendWow, I think I even impressed myself.
Here is my button to add child in popup.
var text url = URLRoot() & "db/" & [_DBID_CHILD] & "?a=API_GenAddRecordForm&dfid=11&_fid_7=" & URLEncode ([Record ID#]) & "&ifv=1&hs=1" //hide the qb menus including that sidebar and hide the save button
& "&NextURL=" & URLEncode(URLRoot() & "db/" & AppID() & "?a=dbpage&pageid=11"); // Open code page 11 to close the popup note that its just a coincidence the page ID=11 and the form ID in my example was 11
"<div style='display: flex; background-color: #3e62d6; padding: 5px 15px; font-size: 12px; border-radius: 25px; width: 200px; height: 30px; align-items: center; justify-content: center;'><a style='color:white; text-decoration: none;' class='OpenAsPopup' data-height=500 data-width=750 data-refresh=true href='" & $url & "'>Add Sales Approval</a></div>"
So that will open the popup. But there will be no save button.
Then make a code page called perhaps CloseWindow.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Title</title>
</head>
<script>
window.close();
</script>
<body>
</body>
</html>
Then make a URL formula field for the popup child table form called Save and Close
URLRoot() & "db/" & AppID() & "?a=dbpage&pageid=11" // change the 11 to the ID of your code page.
I'm not a coder but I seemed to have assembled pieces that work from this Quickbase app here.

You are an absolute rock star. Worked perfectly. And I already had the close window code page worked into a button on the child form so it worked seamlessly.
Many thanks
