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.

According to ChatGPT, there are several alternatives to jquery-confirm that you may want to consider. Here are some popular alternatives that you could explore:

SweetAlert2: A beautiful, responsive, and customizable alert and confirmation library for JavaScript.

Noty: A jQuery plugin that makes it easy to create different types of notifications, such as alerts, success messages, error messages, and more.

Toastr: A simple and flexible notification library for JavaScript and jQuery that lets you display toast messages on your web page.

iziModal: A lightweight and flexible jQuery plugin that lets you create modal dialogs, alerts, and popups with ease.

Bootbox.js: A small JavaScript library that lets you create dialog boxes, confirmations, and alerts using Bootstrap modals.

These alternatives have active maintainers and a community of contributors, which means that they are more likely to receive timely updates and bug fixes. It is always a good idea to explore multiple options and choose the one that best fits your needs.

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.
