How to to avoid showing wordpress tooltips in the content list on top of the page?
We have a few methods to avoid show tooltips in the content list in a wordpress page via wordpress tooltips pro plus version 🙂
Method 1: WordPress Tooltips Plugin Admin can Disable Tooltips for Selected CSS Classes and IDS, You can Disable Tooltips for Any Element in Your WordPress Post
In May 29 2021, we have resolved this issue for another similar wordpress tooltip user at here:
The WordPress tooltip user asked:
When Tooltip shows up in the Table of Contents it breaks the navigational link to the point of reference in the post. How do I disable tooltips showing up in the Table of contents, and only to show up in the post.
In the WordPress Tooltips optional settings panel, we offer a feature that allows you to “Disable tooltips for selected classes and IDs.”
Here’s how it works:
Within the Tooltips Optional Settings panel, you’ll find the option to disable tooltips based on specific CSS classes, IDs, or HTML tags. It looks like this:
Simply enter the classes and IDs you wish to exclude, separated by commas. Once set, the tooltip effects will be removed from the specified classes or IDs on the front end!
For example, if you want to disable the tooltip for the 15th term in your WordPress post while keeping the tooltips for the other terms intact, you can easily do this by making a small edit. Surround the 15th tooltip term with a < span > tag, like this: < span class=’wanttoremovetooltipeffect’ >your keyword< /span >.
Then, in the “Disable tooltips for selected classes and IDs” field, enter the class name .wanttoremovetooltipeffect. As a result, any wordpress tooltip term wrapped in that class will not display a tooltip effect. You can also apply this to various HTML tags such as <div>, <p>, <h1>, <h5>, and more—it works just as well!
If your tooltip terms are contained within a section created by a third-party WordPress plugin, the content will typically be wrapped in a <div>. To find the relevant class or ID, open your browser and navigate to your WordPress page. Press F12 to launch the browser inspector, then hover over the section generated by the plugin to identify the corresponding <div> ID or class.
Simply copy this identifier and add it to the “Disable tooltips for selected classes and IDs” option. This will ensure that all tooltip terms within this section no longer display tooltip effects on the front end!
Method 2: WordPress Tooltips Plugin Admin can Disable Tooltips for Any WordPress Post via “Disable Tooltip for This Page” Meta Box in WordPress Post Editor
When you create or modify a post or page in WordPress using the standard editor, you’ll notice a “Disable Tooltip for This Page” meta box located on the right side of the editor.
By selecting the “Disable Tooltips for This Page” option in this meta box, you can prevent tooltips from appearing in that particular post. It will look something like this:
To clarify this feature, let’s consider an example. Suppose you have a tooltip term labeled “WordPress,” with its associated content being “We all love WordPress.” Typically, if your post includes the word “WordPress,” our tooltips plugin will automatically recognize it and apply tooltip effects, such as dotted or double underlines.
When users hover over the word “WordPress,” a tooltip pop-up will appear. However, if you choose to disable tooltips for that page, even if the word “WordPress” is present in your post, no tooltip effects will be shown. As a result, hovering over “WordPress” will not trigger the tooltip content.
It’s important to keep in mind that while tooltips will not display automatically on this particular page, you still have the option to manually insert tooltips by using the tooltip shortcode “tooltips.”
Method 3: WordPress Tooltips Plugin Admin can Bulk Disable Tooltips Using Post IDs in WordPress Tooltips Optional Settings Panel
- Start by accessing your WordPress admin dashboard.
- Find the “Tooltips” section in the menu.
- Select the “Optional Settings” option located under the Tooltips plugin. It should appear similar to the following: WordPress Tooltips Menu Item.
tooltips menu in wordpress tooltips pro plus 27.5.8
- You will then be taken to the “Optional Settings” page, where you will notice the “Bulk Disable Tooltips by Post ID” input field. This is how it looks:
- Bulk Disable Tooltips by Post ID. Here, you can enter the post IDs for which you want to turn off tooltips. If you have multiple IDs, simply separate them with commas. For example, you can type: 3,22,58,126,583. After saving these changes, the WordPress Tooltip Plugin will no longer add tooltip effects to the specified posts when viewed on the front end. Please be aware that this feature does not affect tooltips created using the “tooltips” shortcode.
- Using this method, you can disable tooltips across several WordPress pages simultaneously without the need to manually disable them one by one!
Hope this have a little help 🙂
Thanks, have a blessed day with your family 🙂
