Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Plugin Not Working?

A. Ensure that both PicTips and the PicTips style pack are Activated on the Plugins
page.

Q. An extra line is displayed before a PicTip?

A. On some content, PicTips appear on a new line. This is a known issue with
WordPress. For best results, add PicTips at the start of a new line.
Ensure that all fields are completed when you add a PicTip, missing information
may mean the PicTip does not appear.

Q. An error message is displayed instead of a PicTip?

A. If a PicTip appears with a cannot load image message, this means that the Image
URL for the PicTip is invalid, check and retry.

Q. Something else?

A. If you are still having issues, please ask a question on the support forum, providing a link to
your site and as much detail about the symptoms as possible.
