• I have gotten around to creating a WordPress Plugin that dynamically changes the tooltips that are created by browsers. Basically, FancyTooltips replaces those boring little boxes that appear next to your mouse with a dynamic and impressive one.

    You can download FancyTooltips and receive more information about it from the entry on my blog.

  • Dudes, post comments on victr’s site (if you haven’t already) so he knows about it! ??

    Actually my comment has nothing to do with his plugin not working but the fact that wp outputs extra code that causes this. Plugin works fine, but in the description area it output an extra br/> tag that causes it to add a physical description below the link.

    This is what gets output extra when just a title attribute would do the trick

    {br This right here{ li/>
    }

    Same as CarLBanks

    Well, as stated on my blog, there is a bug and I’m working to track it down. I appologize to those that upgraded and are having issues. I’m working to resolve the problem ASAP.

    I’ve re-released the file. It’s working fine now. Update your websites with the new version.

    @dawg -This is not plugin related, this is template related. The classic theme renders the description of the link in the title tag where as the Kubrick theme does not. Change your template code accordingly.

    @carlbanks – What seems to be the direct problem? Do the FancyTooltips not render at all?

    Wow, great plugin. Easiest one to date. Upload it, turn it on and watch it go. Thanks

    not really related to this plugin – although I’m using it and loving it — but how do you change the text in the alt tag?

    Right now it lists Permanent Link to — TItle of Post.
    I want it to just say “View Title of Post”.

    And on the Category links – it says view all posts listed in Category title.
    I want it to say View Category.

    I’m sure this is something simple ….

    As for the “permanent link to” you should find it somewhere in your index.php. It may look something like this:

    <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" class="permalink" title="Permalink to:"> Note, that I changed mine to read differently, too.

    Not sure about the Category links though. I imagine it’s somewhere in the sidebar maybe?

    thanks davincim – I found the Permanent Link to bit in the index page; finally found the Category alt tags in the template-functions-category.php file within the wp-includes folder.

    Thanks again ??

    Glad to be of help. And thanks for pointing out where the category alt tags are. ??

    I love this plugin, but is there a way for it not to show the URL’s ? It makes the tooltip unnecesarily big, I think. Thank you.

    Same thing fanelian!

    I will love more this plugin if I could have the option to hide the link URL. Any ideas?

    Thanks, great work!
