    Good morning,

    I have a question to ask you. We are structuring scientific texts to publish on the site. I was wondering if it was possible to make some words interactive when you hover the mouse over them, let me explain better.
    I would like that on some words, by hovering over them with the mouse, a box with specifics would open.

    Thanks,
    Mariarita

    What you are looking for is called a tooltip. You could create this manually yourself by placing a text after the texts that require explanation inside a f.e. span tag with a special custom class and then using this class to show/hide it when hovering.

    However, if you use this frequently, this is probably a cumbersome method. There are probably some plugins that could do just that.
    see for example that demo: https://tooltips.org/wordpress-tooltip-plugin/wordpress-tooltips-demo/

    this seems to be a nice little plugin: https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/bluet-keywords-tooltip-generator/

    it works with a glossary in the background: that means all your keywords shows on content with a tooltip.
    f.e. if you use CEO in your text – it will show the tooltip. You do not need to insert that manually

    see here – and hover CEO: https://webers-testseite.de/tooltip/
