Hi everyone,
I'm not that good with Drupal at the moment, and I suspect some others aren't as well. For those of you in the same boat as me, I've been trying to get qtips working. I read a bunch of stuff online saying you have to copy javascript files to a certain directory, then place some stuff in a .info file or something like that. Then I read the project documentation, and that appeared to be for D6, and I didn't know exactly how to extrapolate the directions into something workable to D7.
Well I got it working, and here's how I did it in D7.
Once the module is installed in D7, there is a qtips option in the "configuration" screen (under "content authoring"). Click that, and set up all of the options. As I remember, I kept most of them defaulted, but there's explanations there if needed. The next part is critical. You have to set up your filters. So like for instance, I want this to show up in my Nodes, but I'm using the PHP filter in my nodes. So in my case, I'd go back to the "configuration" screen. Choose "text formats", then click "configure" next to the filter in question. In my case that was the PHP code filter. There should be a QTips checkbox there. Check that, then at the bottom of that page, move the qtips row so that it is on top (the docs said you have to do this). While still on that page, click "save configuration".
