Hi there,

You can add title attributes to the i tags if you like. This way, when users hover over the icon, it will display the browser-generated tooltip.

To do this, open single.php and locate the icons on lines 116-127. For example, to add "Event time" to the time icon on line 118, it would look like this:

<i title="Event time" class="icon-time"></i><?php the_time('g:i a'); ?><br />

Let me know if that helps.

Best,

Chris

Hi
I'm wondering if there is any way that we can label the icons in the left hand side bar on the likes of this page: http://sidefest.co.uk/rvbuk/, ideally on rollover. None of the tooltip plugins will work with custom post options. I just wondered if you have any suggestions of how I could best implement this? Or maybe carry the title of the field into the page next to the icon.
Many thanks
Vicky
