Announcing Tippy 3.1.0


Just released a new version of Tippy. The only change here is a new option to enable/disable fade. Some users might not want the fade effect so it can now be turned off in the options.

If you already have Tippy installed and run WordPress 2.5 or above you should see the update in your Admin panel once the WordPress Plugin repository updates. Otherwise get it from the Tippy page.

    Ok, next question, I really could do with the tooltip to be SEO, search engine spider friendly. I sent a spider, seems it cant read the text in the tool tip. Any errr . . . tips on that?

    Great plugin!
    Is there a way to use a image instead text in title attribute?

    Greetings! Thanks for creating “Tippy!”

    I was wondering if there is a way to use Tippy with an image map.

    I have an image showing 5 zones, and an image map that gives the 5 zones their own links. I am trying to see if I can make a different “Tippy” tooltip for each of those 5 zone / image map areas.

    Thoughts, if you have time?

    Take care,
    Paul

    Found out that swedish letters can’t be used, like åäö and ÅÄÖ, they get screwed; is it because the string is parsed as javascript or is the page in a different charset?
    I’m using UTF-8. Thanks for all help..

    Hello

    Thank you for very nice work! I am a newbe in WordPress world, but got this working right away (almost!).

    However, I think I may have discovered a bug. When I use this code…

    snitsigt värre – å ä ö

    … and try to include umlauts in between the “]” and “[/tippy]“, I get garbled characters (you can just test by pasting some of the umlauts in there).

    Not sure if it’s my theme, wordpress, or your code. I thought it was all Unicode happy…? I am quite used to having these kinds of troubles, but how nice it would be if I could use accented characters…

    Thanks in advance

    Sorry, forgot to escape the code so you have to look in source view to see it…

    A problem in Chrome with Tippy.
    Can you please check out this page: http://rothenborg.com/blog/ in a Google Chrome browser. There is some issue with the tooltip. It loads, but in a strange potison reletive to the links. Do you know what I am doing wrong?
    Thank you very much for the script, which otherwise works great!

    Just released Tippy 3.1.1 which should fix the issue in Safari and Chrome.

    Hi,

    Thanks for this lightweight plugin. I also have problem with ut8 characters. I’ve looked into the code but didn’t find anything to change/alter regarding this char display error.
    Could you pls look into it?
