Tagged: image tooltip
On fullwidth slider customer wants to keep same caption on all images in same location. We are using three images that we have to give credit to photographer. I have tried several plugins to get a tooltip with the message “Photo Courtesy of Jimmy Gates and Bill Edwards.” to show when image moused over but none seem to work. Do you know of any way I can do this?
We will be adding more images from different photographers so need to get it to work if possible.
thanks,

Hey buddy1,
Well, if you set the image title and alt tag to be the text you want, you will get that rendered by the browser, as the title on mouse over. And making the tooltip for the images in the fullscreen slider might get a bit complex. You will need to build that custom functionality.
If you need further assistance please let us know.
Best regards,

Hi Victoria, thanks for the quick reply. I have the image title, alt tag and caption all set to “Photo Courtesy of Jimmy Gates and Bill Edwards. But when you mouse over nothing shows. I thought it was supposed to show but it does not. Any suggestions?

Hi Buddy,
Hm.. Yes, I see that. Normally we get requests from users who want to hide those. Then you really need a tooltip, but building it on to of the slider is quite a task. You might want to hire someone to do it for you.
Maybe it’s easier to have the image edited and have the text added on the image?
Or try to add some html in the caption field and show it hover?
Best regards,
Victoria
