How to Add WordPress Tooltip Effect on WordPress Widget Text?

An amazing wordpress tooltip user sent a few ticket to us, because he hope wordpress tooltip can works in the wordpress widget too:

I’m trying to figure out why your devs cannot edit the page in question but I now think it could just be a documentation (i.e. user expectation) problem. The problem (as I saw it) was that the tooltips plugin didn’t  work with sidebar content. I was able to reproduce this “problem” by doing the following:
1. created a custom sidebar via theme options (e.g.> > tooltips-test-sbar)

2. added an Anywhere Elementor template that included the target tooltip text to the custom sidebar using a custom HTML widget

3. added a text widget to the sidebar that included the target tooltip text to check if the “problem” was specific to using an Anywhere Elementor template

4. added the custom sidebar to a page containing the target tooltip text (multiple times)

The result is that the page content works perfectly with the plugin. The target text is recognised and tagged as expected, which is what your devs observed. But, the same target text in the sidebar (in an html or text widget) is not recognised by your plugin.

and

 you will see a single page with some text on the page showing the tooltip plugin works perfectly on page content. However, if you scroll to the bottom of the page you will see text containing the two tooltip words that was inserted into the footer using standard WordPress widgets (available  via the WP admin dashboard > Appearance > Widgets. These widgets can be placed in many page/post areas depending on what is provided by the theme.
