What I'm trying to do is change the tooltip color to red. However, I also want to have multiple other colors so I don't simply want to replace the original tooltip's color.
How would I go about doing this?
You can use this way:
<a href="#" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="bottom"
title="" data-original-title="Tooltip on bottom"
class="red-tooltip">Tooltip on bottom</a>
And in the CSS:
.tooltip-arrow,
.red-tooltip + .tooltip > .tooltip-inner {background-color: #f00;}
Moeen MH: With the most recent version of bootstrap, you may need to do this in order to get rid of black arrow:
.red-tooltip + .tooltip.top > .tooltip-arrow {background-color: #f00;}
Use this for Bootstrap 4:
.bs-tooltip-auto[x-placement^=bottom] .arrow::before,
.bs-tooltip-bottom .arrow::before {
border-bottom-color: #f00; /* Red */
}
Full Snippet:
$(function() {
$('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip()
})
.tooltip-main {
width: 15px;
height: 15px;
border-radius: 50%;
font-weight: 700;
background: #f3f3f3;
border: 1px solid #737373;
color: #737373;
margin: 4px 121px 0 5px;
float: right;
text-align: left !important;
}
.tooltip-qm {
float: left;
margin: -2px 0px 3px 4px;
font-size: 12px;
}
.tooltip-inner {
max-width: 236px !important;
height: 76px;
font-size: 12px;
padding: 10px 15px 10px 20px;
background: #FFFFFF;
color: rgba(0, 0, 0, .7);
border: 1px solid #737373;
text-align: left;
}
.tooltip.show {
opacity: 1;
}
.bs-tooltip-auto[x-placement^=bottom] .arrow::before,
.bs-tooltip-bottom .arrow::before {
border-bottom-color: #f00;
/* Red */
}
