How to Avoid WordPress Tooltip Displayed on the Site Logo and Specific Images?
We received a wordpress image tooltip ticket from an amazing user:
Hi, so I have used the plugin to show tooltips on top of 3 images on the homepage of http://seeds3.beginflynn.com/ but the tooltips show up on all the images in the website such as logo and checkout icons. I tried to disable the tooltips by giving classes in the admin sectiWon
but it doesn’t seem to work. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
And another question from another new user of wordpress tooltip plugin:
I have a wordpress site, when you mouse over the logo at top left, a blank tooltip shows up. How do i turn it off for the top logo?
Our wordpress tooltip plugin developer checked their wordpress pages, we found it is because in wordpress image tooltip settings, they are using the content from the “ATL” attribute as their image tooltip content, actually, wordpress tooltip editor can stop this problem just one click in wordpress tooltip global settings panel, you can do it by this way:
1: Ensure your wordpress tooltip plugin is the newest version, you can check it from our site: wordpress tooltip
2: Please login our tooltips.org
3: After logged in wordpress tooltip site, please click the “download” link on the top menu
3: Then you will open my account page, in here you can download latest wordpress tooltip pro plus plugin
4: After downloaded the latest version of wordpress tooltip plugin( a .zip file), please login your own wordpress site
5: In your wordpress dashboard panel, click “Plugins” menu item
6: If you have installed wordpress tooltips glossary free plugin or old wordpress tooltips pro version or wordpress tooltips pro plugin version already, just deactivate the old wordpress tooltip plugin, then ensure you have deleted the old wordpress tooltip plugin
7: Then just check the top section of your wordpress “Plugins” panel, in here you can find a “add new” link, click the add new link, then you will start upload the .zip file of the wordpress tooltip pro plus plugin.
8: After uploaded wordpress tooltip pro plus plugin, please remember to activate this latest wordpress tooltip plus plugin.
9: Okay, now you have the latest wordpress tooltip pro plus plugin on your site, with the newest functions 🙂
10 Now please click the “Tooltips” menu item
11: Then enter “Global Settings” sub menu item, you will open the ” Tooltips Global Settings” panel, it looks like this:
wordpress tooltips pro plugin 15.0.2 global settings panel
12: In the above screenshot, you can find there are a panel named “Enalbe/Disable Tooltips for image setting”, if you want to use image tooltip functions, please remember to select “I want to enable tooltips for image” option and click “Update Now” blue button
If you do not want to display image tooltip on images and icons on your wordpress site, just select “I want to disable tooltips for image” option and click “Update Now” blue button, and then this is all works you need to do
14: If you still want to use image tooltip function on your wordpress site, now the next step is set up “Tooltips for image Keyword Matching Mode” option, in here, you will find we offer a few options for you, for example, you can use content of ALT attribute as image tooltip content, or use content of the REL attribute as image tooltip content, or use content from the title attribute to add the wordpress tooltip to the image on hover… etc
15: Please note, the default value of the “Tooltips for image Keyword Matching Mode” , is content of Use ALT attribute in your img tag as content of tooltips for image, and some wordpress theme will add a value “Site Logo” on the “ALT” attribute of the logo, that’s why when users mouse over the wordpress logo image, there are a wordpress tooltip window pop-up with a wordpress tooltip text content “Site Logo”
16: To avoid this kind of problem you need do not use ALT attribute in your img tag as content of tooltips for image, because many wordpress theme would like add a value on the “ALT” attribute, some wordpress theme author developed their theme with this style is based on SEO factor.
On wordpress tooltip plugin side, use content of image “ALT” attribute as wordpress tooltip content, will avoid wordpress tooltip editor to set up “Tooltips for image Keyword Matching Mode” option — many new wordpress tooltip user do not know this option at all, and most wordpres theme will not add “Alt” attribute on wordpress image automatically 🙂
So if you find a wordpress tooltip window pop-up at your wordpress site log, what you need to do is just one thing — in “Tooltips for image Keyword Matching Mode” option, select “Use REL attribute in image tag as content of tooltips for image”, then all problem will be solved 🙂
17: Now please open your wordpress site in front end again, just mouse hover your wordpress site logo, of mouse hover your wordpress icons, you will find the wordpress tooltip window disappeared from wordpress site logo of other images in your wordpress posts, if you want to add a new wordpress image tooltip in specific wordpress images, you can open wordpress media lib, edit the specific wordpress image,  please remember to add tooltip content in the “REL” attribute of the wordpress image, then in the front end of your wordpress site, only these specific wordpress images will have the image tooltip 🙂
So this is the answer of the question “How to Avoid WordPress Tooltip Displayed on the Site Logo and Specific Images?” , basically, this is just one click in wordpress tooltip global settings panel 🙂
