Data-hint in CFV8

simelas 07 Oct, 2025

Hi Max, 

is there in CFv8  any equivalent to CFv7 data-hint? 

I am not meaning the one under the fields of CFv8  but the one you had in html content  (CFv7

Cheers

Hi simelas

You mean the tooltip ?

if yes then v8 has a Tooltip behavior, this is an icon shown beside the field label.

Hi Max,

I do not mean tooltip but data-hint as illustrated herebelow. It works within html or in button text field or whatever . is the equivalent of title="AAAA" but nicer...

<div data-hint="AAAAAAA"   .....  </div>

Produces the output as illustrated in herebelow picture.  Nicer and far better readable than title="AAAA"

And maybe to be more precise, you had that also in the admin part of CfV7 as illustrated herebelow

Hi simelas

in ChronoForms v8 you can also set a title tag but set an empty attribute data-popup="" to enable the popup feature, does this fit your needs ?

if you hove over your username icon here in the forums it will have this effect:
