Hi Tomas,

Haha that was a pretty long reply, don’t worry though I fully understand about the ETA.
But it cannot hurt to ask right? I understand that it’s hard to keep promises like that because of circumstances though that makes sense. You sound like a very hard worker, I hope you at least enjoy the work ??

As for the other rotten fishes in the sea, don’t expect to always please everyone. There will always be self absorbed people in the world that ‘expect’ that you meet their demands just because they paid for it. I think you’re price is more than fair and you have a great plugin. Both the free and the paid version (although I haven’t bought it myself).

I’m already happy that you’d consider my feature request for future reference and should you be able to manage to create the feature that’s great if not, no biggie either.

I read the answer about the special signs in your other thread, however this is a little complicated. Because if you write a “shortcode” for example an Advance Custom Field Shortcode in a “tooltip shortcode” the tooltip shortcode does not accept the [ ] and the advanced custom field shortcode does not accept the html code.

In your description it says:
Options to enable advance tooltips shortcode mode, for shortcode tooltips, you can enable advance tooltips shortcode in post editor,
then our advance tooltips shortcode will support multimedia content, for example, image / audio / video… and so on in tooltips shorcode.

Can you tell me if this is a Pro only feature?
Because if it is that would explain why in my case the shortcode does not work with other shortcodes as a tooltip.

Here’s an example of what I’ve created with the shortcodes:

[tooltips keyword=’‘ content=’

<h2>Leader Skill:</h2>
Increase Attack Power in Guild Content
‘]

As you can see it’s a complicated shortcode haha ??

The result is shown here: https://summonerswar.info/monsters/
Below the Amazon Dark monster the skill images have tooltips made with your plugin.
The other monsters all use ALT for a tooltip but there are 2 small problems.
1 as you can see, there are many <br> being created by the tooltip inbetween the items. Eventhough you can see from the shortcode above there are no <br> inbetween. The html shows that the output from the tooltip shortcode makes a <br> for every html tag used in the content. This is the output of the shortcode I just posted above.

<div class=”qtip-content” id=”qtip-0-content” aria-atomic=”true”><br><br><p></p><br><h2>Leader Skill:</h2><br><p>Increase Attack Power in Guild Content<br><br></p></div>

Now to get back to the [ ] and ‘ point however

Let’s say for example I wish to show a custom field called debuffs, the shortcode I would need to use for this is [field debuffs] this would output the content of the custom field debuffs.

I used the shortcode [tooltips keyword=’‘ content=’[field debuffs]’] with the special code as you suggested.

The output is however not the content of the field debuffs but it shows in the tooltip [field debuffs] so the shortcode isn’t executed this is because WordPress does not acknowledge the special html signs as a true shortcode because it looks for [ ] to open or close a shortcode and not for #91 and #93 unfortunately.

You can again see this at my website I’ve placed the content all under Amazon Dark so you can ignore the other monsters if you would want to see what it does for yourself.

Also your suggestion to use ' for the ‘ words like can’t or wouldn’t etc this would make it very difficult to copy paste texts into a shortcode from your plugin.

For example
[tooltips keyword=’‘ content=’I couldn’t see this shortcode’]

Because that shortcode would definately break because of the couldn’t the reason it does this is because it expects to see a ] after the ‘ as an end of the content=’ that’s my best guess at least. Now in a page builder you might be correct that the content builder changes the couldn’t into couldn't but in html editor it doesn’t do this which makes it very difficult to use the tooltip shortcodes properly without having to scour trough all your texts and replacing the ‘ words especially in english language this is quite a dealbreaker.

Hi Tomas,

That is understandable, the description field does indeed not work with the desc=”tooltip”, because the desc field is not meant to be used in html this way.

The Description field from the Media items is used on the Attachment post and is stored in the Database under post_content from the native wordpress post Attachment.

I have found a link that explains it very well how WordPress stored Media Data. I think it could help you a lot.

https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/image-meta-data-101-title-caption-alt-text-and-description/

Now my suggestion is to use the database field from the attachment post to show as a tooltip. Howevever I’m not very good at either javascript or php coding so I’m not entirely sure how such a function would look like.

All I can do is describe what it should do:

First get the information from post_content from post $attachment and place this in “something” not sure if it would have to be an array or a string or anything else for the tooltip to be able to use the data.
Than setup the tooltip and show what has been retrieved in the line above.

That way you should be able to use the description field but it’s just a theoretical guess ??

I hope the link I found can help you figure it out it would be an amazing feature and unique to your plugin alone as no other tooltip plugin has this ability. But I understand it’s a little more complicated and hard to give an ETA for it.

Either way I hope you can let me know if you should manage, for now I’ll be using a different solution and use my toolset creating a tooltip from a bootstrap 3 custom field.

Hi Tomas,

That’s great news! Could you give me an ETA on when the feature would be implemented? Just a rough one, like weeks, or months?

currently my project is on hold because I couldn’t find a solution that would make the site work with tooltips.

Also perhaps something else that might be important, does your plugin support nested shortcodes in your shortcode? Because when I try use a custom field from toolset plugin the tooltip shortcode breaks.

Whenever the ‘ or [] are used in the tooltip it will not execute anymore. Instead shows the error that the tooltip cannot be shown.

The ‘ is also a problem if you use words like can’t or shouldn’t where an ‘ is used. If you use these markings in the tooltip tekst in the shortcode it doesn’t show the tooltip properly.

My best guess is this is because it reads these markings ‘ and [] as part of the html code of the shortcode rather than a places them into a string to covert them to tekst.

Hi Nick!

Thanks for taking the time, unfortunately that’s a bit too large scale. You see I’m making a catalog for a game which has 2500 monsters, each monster having unique non repeating skills about 3 / 4 per monster. That would mean having to put in over 10.000 attributes for this solution to work.

Also the second problem I’d be having is that I need to show images for the skills as in the game they are shown as icons. And the attributes will not let me use an icon, only tekst. So unforunately this solution would not work for me.

The reason I mentioned custom fields is because it simply gives the freedom to add extra fields to the woocommerce installation with plugins like ACF, Pods or Toolset and we could use a lot more content like WYSIWYG editor to place 4 images including a tooltip in 1 field.

I’m currently no longer working with Woocommerce btw, I moved to a new solution for my tables with WPdataTables and I’m using Toolset to set up the website with custom posts.

I am very grateful that you took the time to look into my request but I think Woocommerce was simply too limited for my project ??

Hey there, I’ve managed to solve the problem.
Apparantly after setting the amount of thumbnails you also have to disable the vertical alignment to have them horizontally listed.
Makes sense when you already know it, but might be a little tricky for those starting to use it. Maybe when Below or Above is selected you guys can update it so that it automatically disables the vertical align? Just a suggestion either way my problem is solved thnx ??

My settings are set to 4 thumbnails actually.
I’ve send you a message through your contact form hopefully they can find out what is wrong.

Already moved it here: https://forums.athemes.com/t/admin-columns-wrong/21960

Hope you can help me there, I didn’t see a place to share wordpress admin with you though.

Hey Kharis,

No no other language plugin than WPML is installed on the website.
And I checked their settings nothing to indicate that my admin should be RTL either I have only english and dutch on the website so no RTL languages are activated.

Any other suggestions?

@romanbon can you tell me if there is an Ui interface in the backend to adept the custom posts that come with Talon?

I’d like to for example make a few changes like instead of services I’d like to use Chapters and instead of testimonials I’d like to call them Publications.

I could find the custom posts themselves however I couldn’t find any settings or interface in the backend to adjust them.

@mrpritchett +1 for the nested folders.

It’s a very valuable functionality especially for the larger use of intranet possibilities.

AWW that is such a pity cause it’s a briljant piece of work really. Unfortunately without that functionality I’m afraid I will have to look for an alternative cause with 200 videos per list and about 20 lists and only 25 videos on them available my video gallery looses a huge part of it’s functionality.

Hope your issues will resolve itself though best of luck!

Hey there,

It’s me again. Been a while since the last update for this plugin. We spoke about pagination last time and you said you were looking into it.
I was just wondering if you could give me some information whether you’re still working on this?

Best Regards

Oooh thanks so much Marcin,

Never even saw that function. Silly me.

Well that marks this topic resolved then.

Hey there,

Just going to close this thread here as the issue is actually resolved.

Here’s the link provided by Types, showing that the custom posts can be added to the dashboard widget on their own.

Hey there!

Thnx again for the reply, I opened a support request at the Types plugin to see what they will say about it.

Currently I solved my issue by adding the functionality directly to my functions.php in my theme. Which solved the issue for me as well.

// Custom post types counts
  $post_types = get_post_types( array( '_builtin' => false ), 'objects' );
  foreach ( $post_types as $post_type ) {
    if($post_type->show_in_menu==false) {
      continue;
    }
    $num_posts = wp_count_posts( $post_type->name );
    $num = number_format_i18n( $num_posts->publish );
    $text = _n( $post_type->labels->singular_name, $post_type->labels->name, $num_posts->publish );
    if ( current_user_can( 'edit_posts' ) ) {
        $output = '<a href="edit.php?post_type=' . $post_type->name . '">' . $num . ' ' . $text . '</a>';
    }
    // pending items count
    // if ( $num_posts->pending > 0 ) {
    //     $num = number_format_i18n( $num_posts->pending );
    //     $text = _n( $post_type->labels->singular_name . ' pending', $post_type->labels->name . ' pending', $num_posts->pending );
    //     if ( current_user_can( 'edit_posts' ) ) {
    //         $output .= '<a class="waiting" href="edit.php?post_status=pending&post_type=' . $post_type->name . '">' . $num . ' pending</a>';
    //     }
    // }
    echo '<li class="page-count ' . $post_type->name . '-count">' . $output . '</td>';
  }
}
