Very, very fast support

This plugin does what I was looking for. Great tooltips without a lot of unnecessary features. I had a problem on the mobile site during setup. I received super-fast support. It was completely resolved, even though it was cache-related. It’s a perfect solution; it’s really great that the plugin developer actually looked under the hood and beyond their own plugin. I’m really very, very happy with it!
bug since some days
by mhinparis·9 months ago·3 replies
Hi,
since a few days I get the following error line when using form submit under Formidable Forms on my site, where Tooltips is installed.
Warning: Attempt to read property “ID” on null in /…/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-tooltips/tooltips.php on line 1371
The error would disappear if I deactivate the Tooltip plugin.
Anybody with similar issue or a solution?
