Documentation and examples for adding Bootstrap popovers, like those found in iOS, to any element on your site.
<!-- example -->
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-bs-toggle="popover" title="Popover title" data-bs-content="And here's some amazing content. It's very engaging. Right?">Click to toggle popover</button>
Four options are available: top, right, bottom, and left aligned.
<!-- four directions -->
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-bs-container="body" data-bs-toggle="popover" data-bs-placement="top" data-bs-content="Vivamus sagittis lacus vel augue laoreet rutrum faucibus.">
Popover on top
</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-bs-container="body" data-bs-toggle="popover" data-bs-placement="right" data-bs-content="Vivamus sagittis lacus vel augue laoreet rutrum faucibus.">
Popover on right
</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-bs-container="body" data-bs-toggle="popover" data-bs-placement="bottom" data-bs-content="Vivamus
sagittis lacus vel augue laoreet rutrum faucibus.">
Popover on bottom
</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-bs-container="body" data-bs-toggle="popover" data-bs-placement="left" data-bs-content="Vivamus sagittis lacus vel augue laoreet rutrum faucibus.">
Popover on left
</button>
Use the focus
trigger to dismiss popovers on the user’s
next click of a different element than the toggle element.
<!-- dismiss on next click -->
<a tabindex="0" class="btn btn-danger" role="button" data-bs-toggle="popover" data-trigger="focus" title="Dismissible popover" data-bs-content="And here's some amazing content. It's very engaging. Right?">Dismissible popover</a>
Elements with the disabled
attribute aren’t interactive, meaning users cannot hover or click them to trigger a popover (or tooltip). As a workaround, you’ll want to trigger the popover from a wrapper <div>
or <span>
, ideally made keyboard-focusable using tabindex="0"
.
For disabled popover triggers, you may also prefer data-bs-trigger="hover focus"
so that the popover appears as immediate visual feedback to your users as they may not expect to click on a disabled element.
<!-- disabled-element -->
<span class="d-inline-block" tabindex="0" data-bs-toggle="popover" data-bs-trigger="hover focus" data-bs-content="Disabled popover">
<button class="btn btn-primary" type="button" disabled>Disabled button</button>
</span>
