Project seems unmaintained

Open smalos opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

jquery-confirm is a remarkable project with an intuitive design that makes it easy to understand and customize. However, there is a pressing issue: the project appears to be dormant and unmaintained.

Regrettably, there is only one maintainer who seems to have minimal availability to oversee this project. Consequently, pull requests containing bug fixes or enhancements remain open for months, if not years. In reality, the most recent commit to this repository was made on April 13, 2019.

Despite community interest, there has been no progress. Numerous individuals have attempted to contribute, submit pull requests, or ask questions, but their efforts have largely been disregarded.

Therefore, I question whether there is a solution to enhance the situation. Perhaps @craftpip could consider enlisting the assistance of someone from the community to help with project maintenance.

I comprehend that we all work on this voluntarily and in our free time, so I am not placing blame on anyone. My desire is simply to find a resolution to this issue. Thank you.

It seems that out of those, only bootbox can me made truly modal. The others close if you click outside and I don't see a way to prevent that. Too bad that craftpip is not being maintained as it is by far the most extensive and appealing. Been looking for a library to replace alert/confirm/input and stumbled on this one.

SweetAlert2: Set allowOutsideClick to false If set to false, the user can't dismiss the popup by clicking outside it. You can also pass a custom function returning a boolean value, e.g. if you want to disable outside clicks for the loading state of a popup.
