...ran into an issue with Tooltipy where it was causing an error.
The Error
The error was due to the Title of a Tooltip that contained a Forward Slash ( / ). It caused the below error in several areas of the Administrator site.
preg_match() unknown modifier
The Solution
Add the below code (comments can be omitted) to the /WhatEverPathToWordPressSite/wp-content/plugins/bluet-keywords-tooltip-generator/functions.php immediately before the line with: if(preg_match($term,$content_to_check)){
// By default Tooltipy cannot handle forward slashes in the name of the title
// This short script fixes the problem.
// The assumption was made, based on all output of the $term string, that all instances of $term begin with a single forward slash (/) and end with a forward slash followed by two characters, iu, (IE /iu).
// I couldn't figure out how to create a Regular Expression with the granular detail to do the same thing, but I'm sure it could be done, simplifying the below code
// The below script could easily be condensed, but it is put in a long format to make it clear what is occuring.
//
// Original Term (Used for testing only)
$original_term = $term;
// Copy the last three characters of the string
$last_three_characters = substr($term,-3);
// Remove the leading Forward slash from the string
$term = substr($term,1);
// Remove the last three characters of the string, including a Forward Slash
$term = substr($term,0,-3);
// Replace any Forward Slashes (/) in the Title with an ESCAPED Forward Slash (\/)
$term = str_replace("/","\/",$term);
// Add the original leading and trailing strings
//$term = $first_six_characters . $term . $last_three_characters;
$term = '/' . $term . $last_three_characters;
// ECHO command (Used for testing only)
//echo 'ORIGINAL - ' . $original_term . '<br><br>Modified - ' . $term . '<br><br><br><br>';
