Popovers are used to provide additional information on elements where a simple tooltip is not sufficient.

Default markup

To create a default popover use:

<button type="button" class="btn" data-bs-toggle="popover" title="Popover title" data-bs-content="And here's some amazing content. It's very engaging. Right?">Click to toggle popover</button>

Four directions

Four options are available: top, right, bottom, and left aligned. Directions are mirrored when using Bootstrap in RTL.

<button type="button" class="btn" data-bs-container="body" data-bs-toggle="popover" data-bs-placement="top" data-bs-content="Top popover">
  Popover on top
</button>
<button type="button" class="btn" data-bs-container="body" data-bs-toggle="popover" data-bs-placement="right" data-bs-content="Right popover">
  Popover on right
</button>
<button type="button" class="btn" data-bs-container="body" data-bs-toggle="popover" data-bs-placement="bottom" data-bs-content="Bottom popover">
  Popover on bottom
</button>
<button type="button" class="btn" data-bs-container="body" data-bs-toggle="popover" data-bs-placement="left" data-bs-content="Left popover">
  Popover on left
</button>

Popover on hover

Popover can be triggered manual, with a click and on focus and on hover. This one reacts on hover.

<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-bs-trigger="hover" data-bs-toggle="popover" title="Popover title" data-bs-content="And here's some amazing content. It's very engaging. Right?">Hover to toggle popover</button>
