[Resolved] Want to show single post inside a modal

I am trying to show a single post inside of a pop up modal.

Towards the bottom of the page here:
hidden link

I have an image if you hover over it and click it a modal pops up. This is how I want it to work, however the way it is working now is I just copied the html from the post page. I want to be able to use a shortcode or similar to call the post type so that if I need to make changes to the post I can and it will reflect automatically in the modal.

I am using Layouts and Types to make the posts.

Post I want rendered in modal is here for reference:
hidden link

Thanks

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Tooslet does not offer popup using which you can display the content on the popup when you click on the image.

I suggest you should check any use any of suitable plugins that suits your requirements.

The pop up is not the issue. I am trying to place the contents of a post in the modal. Is there a way to display the contents of a single post created with layouts? Perhaps with a shortcode?

Yes, what you should do is create a content template and design it as per your need and add content to it.

you can create a new content template from:
=> Toolset => Content Templates and do not assign the content template to any post type

Once you successfully design your content template, you can display it using the shortcode:

[wpv-post-body view_template="your-contant-template-slug"]

Where:
- Replace your-contant-template-slug with original content template slug
