Sticky Popovers With Click Events

[nodesocket]

Is it possible to make a popover sticky, instead of hover binding, click to show, and it stays shown until the user clicks it again?

Thanks.

Set the trigger option to 'manual'. This is in the docs.

$(element).popover({
  trigger: 'manual'
})

or

<a rel="popover" title="I'm sticky!" data-trigger="manual">Click me</a>

In addition to setting the trigger to 'manual' you also need to manage your own events to show/hide/toggle the popover. In addition to the code above, you'll need to do something like:

$(element).on('click', function() {
  $(this).popover('toggle');
});

Hope that helps.

Looks resolved. In the future, FYI, we'll be switching to click events for popovers. Until then, use the manual method.
