Adding Tooltip Functionality to a SquareSpace Site

For anyone who pays for SquareSpace web hosting, adding simple and flexible tooltip functionality is pretty simple. You just need to have a premium subscription – meaning, you pay for the service. Here’s how it works…

  • Add jQuery, Popper, and Tippy into your Code Injection header, along with some basic JavaScript

  • Bring a page or blog post into edit mode, and create specially crafted links prefixed with #tooltip_

  • Save your page, then load it outside of the SquareSpace editor - you’ll see that each of your links is now transformed into great looking tooltips
