Bootstrap 5 Popover dynamic text

November 5, 2021

I’m trying and failing to set the text on a bootstrap popover:

HTML

<span class="d-inline-block" id="searchPredict" tabindex="0" data-bs-toggle="popover" data-bs-trigger="hover focus" title="Search" data-bs-placement="bottom" data-bs-content="initial text">
    <input type="text" id="searchBar" class="form-control mr-sm-2" placeholder="Product search" aria-label="Product search" aria-describedby="basic-addon2" id="floatingInput2" name="searched">
</span>

$(document).ready(function(){
    $("#searchBar").click(function(){
        $("#searchPredict").popover({
            title: "testing123"
        });
    });
});

Any ideas where I’m going wrong? Thanks in advance.

>Solution :

Adding $('#searchPredict').attr('data-bs-original-title', "testing123"); after your popover function.

$(document).ready(function(){
    $("#searchBar").click(function(){
        $("#searchPredict").popover();
        $('#searchPredict').attr('data-bs-original-title', "testing123");
    });
});
