How Add Tooltip Boxes To WordPress

Tooltip or popup boxes are used by developers to create more user friendly experiences for their users. Did you know that you can use these on your sites too? You may want to link a portion of your content to a tooltip box. Tippy is just the plugin for it. All you have to do is use the right syntax to get this effect on your website.

Tippy is highly customizable. You can change its behavior from its setting page. For instance, you can choose how you want your tooltip to show up (on click or hover). You can also control how your tooltips close and where they will be located on your pages.

There are 3 elements to your tooltip boxes. You need to define a title for each, include your linked content, and add your reference location. You do have the option to turn your header off. I strongly recommend you open your links in a new window. Here is how the syntax works:

Tippy is pretty simple to use and lets you add popup boxes to your content without having to master PHP or Javascript.
