TIP: Finding LearnPress (And Other) Post Types

Your list of post types will likely be different, but LearnPress post types are easy to spot, as they are named "lp_xxx".

If you are facing the same issue with other plugins, it's possible this setting will help solving it too.

Fix Part 2 - Change Z-Index With CSS

If the tooltips still don't appear, it's likely that they are showing behind the content. In order to fix this, apply the following CSS rule on the template: 

#tt {

z-index: 15000;

}
