I need to adjust the placement of the tooltip, would like to have it appear above and to the left, instead of below and to the left. 

It looks like I would need to edit:

sp-forum-footer-dev.js

and then compress and save it in:

sp-forum-footer.js

Is that correct, or is there a way to do this without adjusting the sp core files? 

Would you mind suggesting the positioning edit? 

Thanks,

Chris

hmm... thought we could adjust the position of the tooltip via css.. we used to be able to, but must have lost that when we switched to jquery ui tooltip...  after a quick look does not seem possible (maybe missing something?)

editing that file wont be good... you will have to make the same change after every update...

but you would want to add this to your wp-config.php file:

define('SP_SCRIPTS_DEBUG', true);

that will allow you to use the -dev version of our scripts... so would edit sp-forum-footer-dev.js and then it would just use it... no need to minimize...

will have to think on a good way to allow better positioning without edit core files...
