Editing Tooltip Content

Joobi automatically creates tooltips for all products, however you can customize the content and format for the core elements and your created fields.

There 2 ways to edit a tooltip easily without having to touch CSS or PHP Files.

Option 1 Using Direct Edit

  • From the admin panel, navigate to jApps >> Preferences
  • Go to Views tab, locate "Direct Edit" and "Who can Edit" under Direct Editing section
  • Specify the user role who can edit
  • Click [Save] once you are done
  • Now go back to the "View" you want to edit an element

Note: You can edit ALL the Tooltips even the core ones in the admin area and front-end to personalize the product. Once you update, all your customizations are preserved.

Direct Editing looks like this:

tip-edit-fe

Option 2 Edit Tooltip direct from the Design area

  • From the admin panel, navigate to jApps >> Design >> Views
  • Locate the "View" you want to edit and click "Elements" to view the list of elements for that specific view
  • Select the element that you want to edit the "Tooltip
  • Enter your "Tooltip Content" under Tips

  • Navigate to "Attributes" tab and select your "Tooltip Style".
  • Click [Save] once you are done

In this article, I'll edit the product from front-end for vendors.
If you are not sure what is the name of the view you are actually editing, please read our article about "Views".
