Answer 1

$popover = $el.popover({
  html: true
  placement: 'left'
  content: 'Do you want to a <b>review</b>? <a href="#" onclick="">Yes</a> <a href="#">No</a>'
  trigger: 'manual'
  container: $container // to contain the popup code
});

$popover.on('shown', function() {
  $container.find('.popover-content a').click( function() {
    $popover.popover('destroy')
  });
});

$popover.popover('show')'

Answer 2

For anyone who is still a little confused:

Here is how it works to toggle the popover after you have gotten it to show, select the same button you used to trigger it and call .popover('toggle') on it.

In this case, for closing the popover the code would be:

$('#example').popover('toggle');

Answer 3

I needed to find something that would work for multiple popovers and in Bootstrap 3.

Here's what I did:

I had multiple elements I wanted to have a popover work for, so I didn't want to use ids.

The markup could be:

<button class="btn btn-link foo" type="button">Show Popover 1</button>
<button class="btn btn-link foo" type="button">Show Popover 2</button>
<button class="btn btn-link foo" type="button">Show Popover 3</button>

The content for the save and close buttons inside the popover:

var contentHtml = [
    '<div>',
        '<button class="btn btn-link cancel">Cancel</button>',
        '<button class="btn btn-primary save">Save</button>',
    '</div>'].join('\n');

and the javascript for all 3 buttons:

This method works when the container is the default not attached to body.

$('.foo').popover({
    title: 'Bar',
    html: true,
    content: contentHtml,
    trigger: 'manual'
}).on('shown.bs.popover', function () {
    var $popup = $(this);
    $(this).next('.popover').find('button.cancel').click(function (e) {
        $popup.popover('hide');
    });
    $(this).next('.popover').find('button.save').click(function (e) {
        $popup.popover('hide');
    });
});

When the container is attached to 'body'

Then, use the aria-describedby to find the popup and hide it.

$('.foo').popover({
    title: 'Bar',
    html: true,
    content: contentHtml,
    container: 'body',
    trigger: 'manual'
}).on('shown.bs.popover', function (eventShown) {
    var $popup = $('#' + $(eventShown.target).attr('aria-describedby'));
    $popup.find('button.cancel').click(function (e) {
        $popup.popover('hide');
    });
    $popup.find('button.save').click(function (e) {
        $popup.popover('hide');
    });
});

Here's a "cheat" solution:

Follow the usual directions for a dismissable popup.

Then slap an 'X' in the box with CSS.

CSS:

.popover-header::after {
    content: "X";
    position: absolute;
    top: 1ex;
    right: 1ex;
}

JQUERY:

$('.popover-dismiss').popover({
    trigger: 'focus'
});

HTML:

<a data-toggle="popover" data-trigger="focus" tabindex="0"  title="Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander" data-content="A person having origins in any of the original peoples of Hawaii, Guam, Samoa, or other Pacific Islands.">?</a>

Technically speaking that makes it dismissable if someone clicks something other than the "X" but that's not a problem in my scenario at least.

Answer 5

Sticky on hover, HTML:

<a href="javascript:;" data-toggle="popover" data-content="Vivamus sagittis lacus vel augue laoreet rutrum faucibus." title="Lorem Ipsum">...</a>

Javascript:

$('[data-toggle=popover]').hover(function(e) {
  if( !$(".popover").is(':visible') ) {
      var el = this;
      $(el).popover('show');
      $(".popover > h3").append('<span class="close icon icon-remove"></span>')
                        .find('.close').on('click', function(e) {
                            e.preventDefault();
                            $(el).popover('hide');
                        }
      );
  }
});

Answer 6

I have struggle with this one and this is the simplest way to do it, 3 lines of js:

1. Add a cross in the title of the popover
2. use the js snippet to show the popover and to close by clicking the header
3. Use a bit of css to make it nice

$(document).ready(function() {
  // This is to overwrite the boostrap default and show it allways
  $('#myPopUp').popover('show');
  // This is to destroy the popover when you click the title
  $('.popover-title').click(function(){
    $('#myPopUp').popover('destroy');
  });
});

@import "https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css";

/* Just to align my example */
.btn {
  margin: 90px auto;
  margin-left: 90px;
}

/* Styles for header */
.popover-title {
  border: 0;
  background: transparent;
  cursor: pointer;
  display: inline-block;
  float: right;
  text-align: right; 
}

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
    
<button id="myPopUp" class="btn btn-success" data-toggle="popover" data-placement="top" data-title="×" data-content="lorem ipsum content">My div or button or something with popover</button>
