# Tooltip errors in full lists

 * I have run into two problems when using tooltips.
 * First, when creating a full list using [glossary_term_list desc=’full’ /], tooltips
   within the glossary definitions do not work properly. Instead, the shortcode 
   used for wrapping text appears along with the glossary definition. Using the 
   exact same glossary terms and coding, tooltips work fine within glossary definitions
   in other types of lists.
 * Second, when creating a list of all terms using [glossary_term_list /], the list
   will not appear on a page when the shortcode is placed on a page that also has
   content wrapped in shortcode for creating a tooltip.
 * Any solutions?

 * Thank you very much for the quick response. Updating took care of the problem
   with the full list.
 * However, the update also overrode the custom styles I had included in my stylesheet.
   I had a custom style for the hover indicator (glossary.hover) and the tooltip
   popup box. With the update, it also seems that excerpts don’t load automatically
   from the outset, so there’s a delay in getting the tooltip popup excerpt.
 * 1) Is there any way to disable your preset hover and tooltip (qtip) styles? The
   prior version had such an option among the formatting options. If not, what are
   the appropriate codes to override them in my stylesheet?
 * 2) Is there any way to get excerpts to load automatically from the outset, so
   there’s no delay when you hover over a term linked to a tooltip?
 * Thank you.

 * I must admit, I assumed that everyone would use the presets :/
 * I will be looking at how to introduce custom styling with qtip2, along with enabling
   more of the options it has through the wp-glossary plugin.
 * The tooltips are now called using an AJAX call, so speed will vary much like 
   site speed. I tried setting them according to the documentation ([http://qtip2.com/options#core.prerender](http://qtip2.com/options#core.prerender))
   to load with the page, but it made not difference. I’m hoping to either figure
   out how to do it properly, or that it gets fixed.
