Display Field Description - Without Tooltip

14 years 3 months ago #124236 by randomsam
This may be really easy but I cannot find the answer for the life of me.

In "Update your Profile" I have the Field Title displayed, then the input box, then the tooltips. In an ideal situation I would like the ability to disable the tooltip for certain fields and display the description text to the right of the input box.

If this is not possible I would be quite happy with keeping the tooltips but really need the ability to display the description text to the right of them.

In case my explanation makes no sense I have attached a screenshot. (I would like the description in the positions shown by red boxes)

I'm using Joomla 1.5.15, CB 1.2.1 and the default CB Template.

Any help would be great as I get the feeling it's driving me slightly mad:-)

Sorry, this is not doable without some form of custom CB plugin to change how tooltips are handled. You'll likely need to use a CB trigger within your CB plugin to accomplish it as well; please see tutorials in my signature for CB trigger usage. :)

Perhaps it should be a feature in an upcoming version. I've been looking for this option for days, didn't realize it didn't exist. Something simple like "Display desription as:" and then a choice of "Tooltip" or "Text". Tooltips just aren't very intuitive for this, especially when the description contains a lot of text for instructions.

It's possible it maybe a feature sometime in the future, but to my knowledge nothing of such is planned. It is doable with a new CB plugin which utilizes triggers and basically removes the JS.
