Support » Plugin: Tooltipy (tooltips for WP) » Mobile/Tablet Friendly ?

  • Hi Jamel,

    First of all, I’ve to say I’m completely overwhelmed by your plugin. It’s really fantastic and I’ll write a review for you. 🙂

    However, I’m experiencing some glitches when using a smartphone (in my case : iPhone 4, latest iOS 7 version) or a tablet (iPad 2, latest iOS 7 version). I understand I have to tap on a word to make the window appear, but this window automatically disappear after 1-2 seconds. The problem appear on my website but on your Demo website as well.

    Is that a problem you can fix or is it iOS specific ?

    Thank you for your answer and keep improving your plugin, it’s awesome. 🙂

    Cheers !

    Hi Khannibal
    thanks for your words 🙂
    to be honest I could say that I haven’t tested the plugin on several devices yet to make it the most mobile friendly, but i’ll checkout this problem
    and I’ll be back 😉

    I don’t see what you modified, it’s still the same version on wordpress.org ?
    Anyway, I reinstalled but sadly nothing changed…
    The behavior I described is still the same on your demo site and on my site. 🙂

    excuse me for the delay KHannibal but I have not had the opportunity testing my plugin tooltips on an IPhone 4 I only tested it on an other mobile device and it works properly.
    sorry for the unresolved problem for the moment 🙁 but I guess that some css statements are not supported by iOS 7

    I wonder if the following cssplay suggestions might fix the problem:

    His solution appears to work on the ipad.

    Hi KHannibal

    after removing the suspect transition style property only in my site, please try to visit this page to checkout if the problem persists using the IPhone 4 :

    Sorry, no. It doesn’t work on the ipad. The highlighted words are completely insensitive to a click: no tooltip becomes visible.

    Still a script kiddie, I did try to put blueskills code into your index.php:

    $delimiter_1='<span class="bluet_tooltip" onmouseover = "void(0)">$2<span>';
    $delimiter_2='<b>$2</b> : ';
    $delimiter_3='</span></span><img class="close" src="'. plugins_url( 'assets/transparent.gif', __FILE__ ) . '" alt="" />';

    This enabled the tooltip to appear on an ipad, but then it persisted, and would not disappear later. Not sure what to try next.

    By the way, the page I’m testing is http://ma4jr.org

    I can make the tooltip disappear by clicking on the slider in the widget area!???!

    (@rosejimverizonnet)

    A better solution:

    delimiter_1='<span class="bluet_tooltip" onmouseover = "void(0)" ongestureend = "void(0)" >$2<span>';
    $delimiter_2='<b>$2</b> : ';
    $delimiter_3='</span></span>';

    tooltip seems to be created twice on ‘touch’, but it does disappear when the tooltip is touched again.

    thanks rose
    I thought it’ll be better to not use javascript (only CSS) but this is not always effective
    I’ll create an optinized javascript version, it seems it will be better

    Oh, and as a little present, I’ll translate your plugin in French. 😉

    Hi KHannibal
