Requirements:

You must have a copy of Contact Form 7 installed, activated, and working on your WordPress website in order to use the Magic Tooltips For Contact Form 7 plugin.

You can obtain a copy of Contact Form 7 here.

To get started:

Install and activate Magic Tooltips For Contact Form 7  and then you can begin adding tooltips to your Contact Form 7 fields right away.

Magic Tooltips For Contact Form 7 uses the custom HTML tag <tip></tip> to contain the tooltip content, but you should put it right behind the field label text.

Below is an example of Contact Form 7 code with tooltips added.

<p>Your Name (required)<tip>This is Magic Tooltip 1</tip><br />
    [text* your-name] </p>
<p>Your Email (required)<tip>This is Magic Tooltip 2</tip><br />
    [email* your-email] </p>

By default, a question mark icon will show behind the field label when you save your form, and the field label will display with an underline now. When you move your mouse over the field label or the question mark icon, the content inside … will display as a tooltip.
