The hover shows the forum path, for instance if I am in a post it shows the whole road back to my main webpage like so:

Post title | forum title | group title | forum | AJC

AJC being the name in the main manu point I guess…

The thing is I only see it on simplepress… Other pages work great. .

I understand that. But the conflict is, I believe, with your WP theme. Actually I am pretty sure of that. But it is a conflict and might be able to be sorted when we know if I am right or wrong.  Which was why i asked the question above (post 15)

Changed theme to two others… Same thing..

Deactivating plungins will suffice of do i need to uninstall completely?

Curious, I was loading different pages on your site and didn’t see the change…

If not the theme then it must be a plugin you are using, Looking at the scripts there a lot there I am unfamiliar with.

Well – we can turn off the forum tooltips which should stop the conflict. This is not the right way to do it but it is good enough for testing.

Go to the forum admin > themes > theme editor.  When it loads look down the right hand side for the file ‘spFunctions.php’ and click on it to open it in the editing box.

At the top you will see the line pf code:

if (!defined('SP_TOOLTIPS')) define('SP_TOOLTIPS', true);

Change that word true at the end to false, save it and see what happens.

changed theme + removed some plugins+ define(‘SP_TOOLTIPS’, false);

no hover 🙂

EDIT:

changed theme + removed some plugins+ define(‘SP_TOOLTIPS’, true);

no hover 🙂

changed back to original theme + removed some plugins+ define(‘SP_TOOLTIPS’, true); 

hover is back… my these sucks them 🙂

can you recomend a theme that works good with SP?

what is the most minimal theme there is? i just want it to look as i have it right now..

header and footer on each page in my colors and im happy 🙂 

we know of very few themes that dont work with simple press…  there is really very little interaction (other than giving us the page layout) between them…

If you just want a simple theme, take a look at the wp defaults…  2014 and 2016 are decent…

hi everyone,

thanks for the support! 

i managed to remove the hover from the main forum page, BUT….

when i go into a forum, or see a post the hover comes back… super wierd..

what does the false in the SPtooltip do and should i leave this on false?

currently:

im using my old theme and all plugins are active and

if (!defined(‘SP_TOOLTIPS’)) define(‘SP_TOOLTIPS’, false);

no hover.

what did i disable by not havin a SP_TOOLTIPS ?

So are you saying the hover is now totally gone? What that change did was turn off the fancy forum tooltips. Hover over the buttons and links on this page and you will see them. By turning it off you will get the standard browser tooltips instead.

If the issue was not your theme then it will come down to one of the plugins you are using but I really do not know what that might be. As I said above – I could see a lot f mentions of ‘tooltips’ on the source code header of your page and I am pretty certain that that s then conflicting with our own calls to the jQuery UI Tooltips script library. This is what you have now disabled.

I always believe that it is better to resolve the problems but if you are happy with this workaround then you will need to install a child theme. Download the Reboot Child Theme from our store (free) – install it – make the SAME change as above and then select that as your main SP theme. all should work as it does now. If you don’t do that then when we next update the theme it will wipe out your change. ysuing the child theme will prevent that.

 actually it’s only half fixed it, ifs gone from the forum main view but when opening post replies it comes back…

I didn’t have time to tinkrer with it yet but I am also suspecting two or more Plugins are ruining the whole thing for me.. I will start deleting stuff… And find it in the weekend..

I will update here so you will know as well

Please do… As Andy says, it’s pretty easy to disable ours with a child theme.  And we can help with that.

okay so here is an update.

i removed 90% of my plugins deleted all my old themes and and now using a different one just for testing.

deactivated the rest of the plugins.. i have only several plugins active. mostly wordpress made..

forum still making this hover caption.

im lost…..

the only thing tht seems to help is changing that true to false.

when its in false ho hover as of now.

what do i disable by the sptooltip=false?

do i loose my plugins or something else by disabling this?

Exactly. When you set the tool tips to false, we disable our pop-up tool tip when hovering over items.

alright. did all i can think of…. no go…

so from what i can see this is the only solution?

making a chlild theme?

running now a reebot-child with tooltip on false

Would you be willing to let me know the name of the WP theme and all the WP plugins you are using? If you go to the forum admin > toolbox > environment then you can copy the list and paste it into a post… If possible I would still like to try and nail this down properly.
