Modal within other modal on UIkit

Question

When I'm clicking on the second modal, the first modal disappears. However, I want to keep it open as well! Is this a way to disable that behavior?

I have also noticed that other frameworks such as Foundation have the same behavior.

Here's my code:

<a href="#my-id" data-uk-modal>Open Modal</a>
<div id="my-id" class="uk-modal">
    <div class="uk-modal-dialog"> 
        <a class="uk-modal-close uk-close"></a>
        <p>Lorem ipsum...</p> 
        <a href="#my-id2" data-uk-modal>Nested Modal</a>
    </div>
</div>
<div id="my-id2" class="uk-modal">
    <div class="uk-modal-dialog"> 
        <a class="uk-modal-close uk-close"></a>
        <p>Lorem ipsum...</p>
    </div>
</div>

See the jsfiddle demo.

You can show multiple Modals using uk-modal="stack: true"

Here is the code

<button class="uk-button uk-button-default uk-margin-small-right" type="button" data-uk-toggle="target: #modal-example-1">Open</button>

<!-- This is the Parent modal -->
<div id="modal-example-1" uk-modal>
    <div class="uk-modal-dialog uk-modal-body">
        <h2 class="uk-modal-title">Parent Modal</h2>

        <p class="uk-text-right">
            <button class="uk-button uk-button-default uk-modal-close" type="button">Cancel</button>
            <button class="uk-button uk-button-primary" type="button">Save</button>
        </p>
        <button class="uk-button uk-button-default uk-margin-small-right" type="button" data-uk-toggle="target: #modal-example-2">Open</button>
    </div>
</div>

<!-- This is the Child modal -->
<div id="modal-example-2" uk-modal="stack: true">
    <div class="uk-modal-dialog uk-modal-body">
        <h2 class="uk-modal-title">Child Modal</h2>

From documentation:

You can trigger a new modal inside the current modal. The default behaviour closes the first modal when a second one opens. You can prevent this from happening by adding the data-uk-modal="{target:'#ID',modal:false}" attribute.

So something like:

<div>
    <h2>Multiple Modal</h2>
    <button class="uk-button" data-uk-modal="{target:'#modal1', modal: false}">Open Modal 1</button>

</div>

<!-- This is the modal 1-->
<div id="modal1" class="uk-modal">
    <div class="uk-modal-dialog">
        <h2>Modal 1</h2>
        <button class="uk-button" data-uk-modal="{target:'#modal2', modal: false}">Open Modal 2</button>      
    </div>
</div>


<!-- This is the modal 2-->
<div id="modal2" class="uk-modal">
    <div class="uk-modal-dialog">
        <h2>Modal 2</h2>
        <a class="uk-modal-close" href="#">Close Modal 2</a>
    </div>
</div>

should work.

I have it working with javascript:

var modal1 = UIkit.modal("#modal1", {center: true, modal: false}),
    modal2 = UIkit.modal("#modal2", {modal: false});

You have do some changes :

Your HTML code :

<a href="#my-id" data-uk-modal >Open Modal</a>
<div id="my-id" class="uk-modal">
    <div class="uk-modal-dialog"> 
        <a class="uk-modal-close uk-close"></a>
        <p>Lorem ipsum...</p> 
        <a href="#my-id2" data-uk-modal>Nested Modal</a>
    </div>
</div>
<div id="my-id2" class="uk-modal">
    <div class="uk-modal-dialog"> 
        <a class="uk-modal-close uk-close"></a>
        <p>Lorem ipsum...</p>
    </div>
</div>

Your jQuery code should like :

$(document).ready(function(){

    $.UIkit.modal('#my-id').show();
    $.UIkit.modal('#my-id2').show();  

});

This should work
