Is there a way to disable the Tool Tips feature in the 'Active Topics' Page?

It doesn't seem to serve a purpose there if we're showing the same text. And, some at my Forum have commented that it's a bit annoying.

Optimally, I'd like to see a way where each person could choose to see them or not, but barring that, is there a way to turn them off on that page?

Try CP > Display Options > General > Primary tab > expand Forum Display Options > Topic tooltip preview size in characters. Leave the field blank or set to 0 to disable.

Thanks, but I'd like to just turn it off for the 'Active Topics' page, not the whole Forum.

The only way to do that currently will be to make a small modification to scripts/activetopics.inc.php. About line 51, right after the line that starts with:

PHP Code

extract($in...
 

Add this:

PHP Code

$config['TOOLTIP_LENGTH'] = 0;

Thanks Rick!!

Any chance that 'Tool Tips' could be turned on/off as a Preference in future versions?

Yes, I'd say there's a 99.9% chance of that wink
