Hi there,

is it possible to render non-administrative content using the core overlay module.
Like the former popups_api and modal_frames api do?

Thanks a lot, especially for your hard work on drupal 7.

Sorry, if this is a stupid question, haven't developed much yet.

Yes, it can be turned on in a variety of ways, although the exact method is still maybe a bit in flux. See for example #743908: Skip overlay initialization if already done.

Also note that the definition of "administrative" vs "non-administrative" content is not set in stone, so if you're just looking to make the overlay appear on a couple extra pages or something like that, your best bet might just be to alter that definition to include your pages... and then it will automatically appear on those pages :) See http://api.drupal.org/api/function/hook_admin_paths_alter/7
