I am having trouble with the popup messages (tooltips) that should appear when hovering over the monthly calendar. When tooltips are set in 'configuration' to 'bootstrap' the tooltips appear in code rather than the proper information (see pic). When I set tooltips to UIkit i get an error 'problem with popups localhost' reported when I exit the configuration. With this setting also, when hovering over the calendar I only get a limited amount of info shown, just the event name, not what is shown in your online demo. Are the tooltips not implemented fully in the 'free' version? Using Joomla 4 with Helix Ultimate template
Edit the file plugin/system/helixultimate/html/layouts/libraries/cms/html/bootstrap.php and add the following line in the popover method at line c. 269



Factory::getDocument()->addScriptOptions('bootstrap.popover', array($selector => $opt));

so that the block reads


		$opt     = (object) array_filter((array) $opt);



		Factory::getDocument()->addScriptOptions('bootstrap.popover', array($selector => $opt));



		static::$loaded[__METHOD__][$selector] = true;

There are some known javascript issue with some versions of the Helix template framework - can you switch to cassiopeia temporarily to confirm that the problem is in the template

Switched to Cassiopeia - it's just the same.

Can you give me the URL to look at - switching to Cassiopeia by itself isn't enough you would also need to disable the Helix system plugin to test properly.

Hi Geraint - Yes you are right, it is Helix that is causing the problem. When I disabled it fully in 'Extentions Manage' the popup works fully. Is there any solution when using Helix? Thanks very much for the gudance so far!

In Joomla 4 the way that dynamically created javascript is pushed to the browser is different to Joomla 3 and the Helix Framework plugin is dropping this for some reason. Its been reported to them several times and they have still not fixed it from what I can make out.

See https://www.joomshaper.com/forum/question/13405

You are a star!! Funnily enough the line was already in there but commented out and the file was just as I downloaded it from the Helix site!

Anyway now working thanks a lot:)
