Joomla 3.1.5 Registration tooltips now not working correctly

We Upgraded Joomla 3 to 3.1.5 and tooltips for the registration page no longer work correctly.

The class changed from "hasTip" to "hasTooltip" and now the tool tip does not function correctly. The tips make the form move.

Thanks!

Update:

Joomla 3.0.3 the registration form worked correctly with the Protostar and Breez3 templates.

When upgrading to Joomla 3.1.5, the Protostar Template worked, but the Breez3 template did not work correctly with the registration form.

Are there changes we should make in the template to handle the Joomla upgrade?

Thanks!

Hello guys! I'm having this terrible problem also and I made some research. Here's what my progress so far:

1. I am using Isis Template (For Administrator), and Beez Template (For Site).
2. I uses the debug tool of Google Chrome (Press F12 on your google chrome web browser to launch it)
3. Open both admin and site pages in different tabs
4. Examine the list of .css file loaded on separate tabs

When I look closely, I am not seeing a "template.css" on the site page, but in the admin page I can see. When you hover the mouse to the field that launches the tooltip, there's a "div" tag inserting below the "label" tag and it has a class name "tooltip fade top in". I searched for the entire .css files of the Beez template but I cannot see it.

THAT IS WHAT IS MISSING! [As I thought :) ]

What you have to do is open the "template.css" of the Isis template using Notepad, copy the entire "tooltip" class starting from ".tooltip" up to ".tooltip.bottom .tooltip-arrow" (lines 3958 to 4033), and paste it to the one of the .css file where Beez template is using. I tried "personal.css" and paste the entire code class at the bottom.

Save it (don't close yet), go back to google chrome and activate the site tab, hit refresh (F5) and check if there's any changes on the tooltip.

The tooltip shows but it is not in the right position. I haven't tweaked the codes yet. Maybe if you find a fix please post it here. I'll try it tomorrow.

Cheers!

Well done, adding the styles from administrator template css file solves the problem.
Wrong position of the tooltip you can fix by removing display: block; from label tag in your template's css.

The answer is 100% correct and saved me a lot of time! To save others a lil more, here is the CSS from the template.css file:

Code: Select all

.tooltip {
	position: absolute;
	z-index: 1030;
	display: block;
	visibility: visible;
	font-size: 11px;
	line-height: 1.4;
	opacity: 0;
	filter: alpha(opacity=0);
}
.tooltip.in {
	opacity: 0.8;
	filter: alpha(opacity=80);
}
.tooltip.top {
	margin-top: -3px;
	padding: 5px 0;
}
.tooltip.right {
	margin-left: 3px;
	padding: 0 5px;
}
.tooltip.bottom {
	margin-top: 3px;
	padding: 5px 0;
}
.tooltip.left {
	margin-left: -3px;
	padding: 0 5px;
}
.tooltip-inner {
	max-width: 200px;
	padding: 8px;
	color: #fff;
	text-align: center;
	text-decoration: none;
	background-color: #000;
	-webkit-border-radius: 4px;
	-moz-border-radius: 4px;
	border-radius: 4px;
}
.tooltip-arrow {
	position: absolute;
	width: 0;
	height: 0;
	border-color: transparent;
	border-style: solid;
}
.tooltip.top .tooltip-arrow {
	bottom: 0;
	left: 50%;
	margin-left: -5px;
	border-width: 5px 5px 0;
	border-top-color: #000;
}
.tooltip.right .tooltip-arrow {
	top: 50%;
	left: 0;
	margin-top: -5px;
	border-width: 5px 5px 5px 0;
	border-right-color: #000;
}
.tooltip.left .tooltip-arrow {
	top: 50%;
	right: 0;
	margin-top: -5px;
	border-width: 5px 0 5px 5px;
	border-left-color: #000;
}
.tooltip.bottom .tooltip-arrow {
	top: 0;
	left: 50%;
	margin-left: -5px;
	border-width: 0 5px 5px;
	border-bottom-color: #000;
}
.tooltip {
	max-width: 400px;
}
.tooltip-inner {
	max-width: none;
	text-align: left;
	text-shadow: none;
}
th .tooltip-inner {
	font-weight: normal;
}
.tooltip.hasimage {
	opacity: 1;
}
.tip-text {
	text-align: left;
}

this also helped me a lot. My registration form no longer gets distorted on mouseovers. However, I am still seeing the tooltip get cutoff by the registration form border. I can't read the beginning of the tooltip text for tooltips that appear on short field labels, because the tooltip starts too far left of the form border. I think I need to increase the left margin somehow, but haven't found the right rule to tweak... any thoughts?

Thanks to all but especially for taking the time to post the CSS. It took me less time to fix my issue with the tooltips than it did to find my login for the forum here! :-[
