Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity.

0 The tooltip plugin now hides the tooltip box when mouseout of the tooltip box instead of the tooltip trigger. This allows you to add links and elements that the user can interact with while keeping the tooltip box open.

The tooltip box adjusts the fit inside the screen if your triggers are close to the edge.

2/7/2012 – Critical update: Fixed script linking issues.

Update 3-5-2012: jQuery script loading changed to fix conflict issues.

Update 4-4-2012: Tooltip box now loads to the left of trigger elements that are greater then 50% document screen width.

Update 4-17-2012: Feature added – self trigger for triggering the tooltip on image and contianer elements instead of adding the trigger.

Loading jQuery before plugins

The correct way to load jQuery into your theme is to load it prior to all plugins being loaded. Having said this know that the plugin loads jQuery seperately in case your theme is not set to load jQuery. To load jQuery from the theme instead of the plugin do the following changes to your theme and plugin files.

php file and add the following code anywhere on the page:

is_admin()){

wp_deregister_script(‘jquery’);

1’);

wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery’);

}

php file and comment out or delete the echo script line on line 21 by adding two backslashes before it (“//”))

js’></script> ”;

*Step Three: Upload the saved files to your server.

This will load jQuery into your theme before any plugins get loaded on the page thus eliminating the need for each plugin to load jQuery.

When each plugin loads different versions of jQuery on the page this creates compatability issues and will cause your plugins to not work correctly. I seriously suggest the users of FlickrShow to use this method of including jQuery on the page.

“Tested up to” is directory metadata supplied by the plugin author. WP PlugIndex does not turn an older declaration into a claim that the plugin is incompatible.
