Hey dear WordPress Tooltip Plugin Users, hope you are doing well and have happy weekend with your family! We are happy to report you, we just released wordpress tooltip plugin 15.0.4, in this version, we re-developed wordpress tooltip excerpt module to generate wordpress tooltip excerpt automatically — even when you did not enter tooltip excerpt in tooltip editor 🙂

We get a wordpress tooltip user’s ticket, in which he said:

I am selecting “excerpt” and the plugin is not following the settings, it is still showing the full content without adding the read more  link.

It is strange, we replied:

Hi,
Hope you are doing well and having happy days with your family 🙂

Thanks for the message 🙂

We are very happy to help you 🙂

Sorry this is the first time we heard this kind of problem, because we have many plugin versions with different functions, Would you please tell us the plugin version you are using? 🙂

Thanks, have a blessed day with your family 🙂

Best Regards,
Support Team

Then the amazing user made a video screenshot to us, we built a development platform to follow users video and check the problem, finally, we find then tooltip users did not enter excerpt in tooltip editor, then tooltip will not return a excpert content in the tooltip pop-up window, this is correctly working method of a wordpress plugin, but our developer said he can do more, then he developed a new version for the user — when the user did not enter anything in the tooltip excerpt text input box, our new function will generate the tooltip excerpt for this wordpress tooltip term based on the tooltip content, automatically. this is why we released wordpress tooltip plugin 15.0.4, this version effected wordpress tooltips pro plus version and wordpress tooltips pro version 🙂
