DiscussionToolTip - hover over discussion topic to see a portion of discussion contents

peregrine

This discussion is related to the DiscussionToolTip addon.

I seem to remember someone requesting something like this and I didn't see a plugin available. Is this discussiontooltip-plugin duplicate?

tannerc

peregrine

if it works on your theme and it is not one of the default themes - please list it here.

change line 1 in disctip.css
from
.ItemContent a.Title {

to

.Discussions .ItemContent a.Title {


and see if that helps.


report back if it works and list the theme it works for.

Sweet plugin! One thing to note: it seems to not play nice with the UserPhotoIndex plugin -- it bumps the title to the left of the image, dropping the image down

I actually like tooltips better than profile pictures, so for now i'll disable IndexPhoto plugin.

@peregrine, sorry I didn't @ you on my first messages.

Is this on your radar? This plugin has a conflict with IndexPhoto. Let me know if you want to fix this yourself or want me to try my hand.

go for it. its not on my radar. You probably want to combine the two plugins.

• disable discussiontooltips. if you want to do what you want by modifying /views/discussion/helper_functions.php

    
    look around line 41 
    and change 
    
     <?php echo Anchor($DiscussionName, $DiscussionUrl, 'Title'); ?>
    
   to
    
   <?php  

$title = strip_tags(str_replace(array('[',']'), array('<','>'), substr($Sender->EventArguments['Discussion']->Body,0,220). "..."));  

echo Anchor($DiscussionName, $DiscussionUrl, 'Title',array('title' => $title)); ?>
    

the only other way to do something with plugin is to do a jquery to change title attribute.

Thx. I like it. I liked it so much I revised the plugin to hover the icon instead of the discussion title. More compatible with other themes this way.

I'm sure the donations will be flowing in a usual :).

@peregrine I have a suggestion to improve a couple of things to this great plugin,

I made a small eye icon to be used instead of the tooltip icon for the plugin. and changed a couple things in the css to make it work better.

This way If a person uses hover zoom , the tooltip icon does not also show when hovering.

    
ul.Discussions li a img.Dtooltip {
 padding-left: 5px;
    float: left;
     height: 25px;
    width: 35px;
    }

.Discussion.ItemContent {
   padding-left: 35px;
}

and then just switched the icons here

      
        $newTitleAnchor  = 'EventArguments['Discussion']->Url  . '">' .  Img($prelink . "ttip.png", array('alt' => 'Tooltip', 'title' => $sline, 'class' => "Dtooltip")) . '';

I updated to the blue eye before I saw your post, anyone can change to the red-eye for overnight travel. version 1.2.1

thanks for the tip and icons.

vrijvlinder

the red-eye for overnight travel.

lol that is funny , it looks a bit too real that eye, scary even, the blue is better I think
