Hello,

I try to add the tooltip shortcode to a table sell. I create a table with the table block, but all I can do is adding code or an inline image etc. I am really stuck in the moment.

Any help ?

Hi @carsten-schonberg,

Hope this message find you are doing well and have wonderful weekend with your family 🙂

Thanks for the message, we are very happy to help you 🙂

1: if you check our demo and document at https://tooltips.org/add-tooltips-for-table/, you will find wordpress tooltips plugin support add tooltips for the table plugin tablepress, in our demo you will find users can add tooltips on table head and table cells automatically, you do not need use shortcode to create table tooltips

2: If you want to use shortcode, please check our detailed document about tooltip shortcode at: https://tooltips.org/how-to-use-wordpress-tooltip-shortcode-tooltips-to-add-tooltips-manually/

3: For new users of wordpress tooltips plugin, we suggest use another shortcode “tooltip_by_id” like this: [tooltip_by_id tooltip_id='222']
The ‘222’ is tooltip id, you can find our detailed step by step document with screenshot at:
How to Reference the Content from an Already Existing Tooltips Term in Tooltip Short Code?
https://tooltips.org/how-to-reference-the-content-from-an-already-existing-tooltips-term-in-tooltip-short-code/

In the current time, wordpress shortcode mechanism have many flaws yet, by this way, you can easily push the limits of the wordpress shortcode. You can achieve many complex effects in wordpress tooltips standard WYSWYG editor, and then use tooltip_by_id shortcode to reference the content of the tooltip term into any wordpress post or page. 🙂

What you need to do is just create a new tooltip post, then just copy the tooltip post id and make a tooltip shortcode quickly like this:

[tooltip_by_id tooltip_id='222']
The ‘222’ is tooltip id, then in the front-end, we will use tooltip item when users mouse hover the

You can find tooltip id at tooltips WYSWYG editor, in general when you edit a tooltip, the edit links looks like this:
http://yourdomain.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=222&action=edit, in here, the 222 is your tooltip id

Via the wordpress tooltip shortcode [tooltip_by_id], you can edit multimedia content in wordpress tooltip WYSWYG editor, and insert tooltip effect into the page builder (gutenberg / elementor / beaver / visual composer…), or any wordpress posts / wordpress pages, or other amazing plugins like woocommerce, wpform, contact form 7, tablepress, pricing table… and so on.

4: We also have a module named “tooltips for anything” — that means if the an element in the wordpress site have CSS class or ID, you can add tooltips on these elements, please check our detailed document at:
https://tooltips.org/tooltips-for-class-and-tooltips-for-id-tooltips-can-be-attached-to-any-elements-which-have-a-css-class-or-css-id-in-front-end/

If we miss-understand you, would you please tell more details, for example, which kind of table plugin are you using? Would you please copy the content of that post so we will know how you create the table and tooltip? The URL which have the problem so we can do a check and solve it for you? “_

Thanks, have a blessed day with your family 🙂

Best Regards,
Wordpress tooltips plugin support
