Here is a thread to have the image open as a popup when clicking on it:

But to have a tooltip on it, it would require some other changes in the same view file, using the Joomla tooltip library:

I would also like to add tooltips into the registration and guest forms for the checkout. In particular, I would like to alert the customers that they can use an email address as a username as there seems to be some confusion there as it asks for a username and then email address. I have found that if they think up a username that is different to their email address, they will tend to forget the username the next time they try to log in. I have read in the forums where they say to add it into the placeholder of the custom fields, but the registration forms don't appear to be in the custom fields and there seems to be very little information on how to make this work. There is a bit of coding advice, but I would have thought that this would have been a fairly basic feature by this time. Thanking you for any help you can offer, all the best, Steve

Hi,

The maine fields "email", "username", "password" are not custom fields as they have to be treated in a specific way, not like custom fields. For example, the password field follows the password restriction settings of the Joomla user manager settings area, and the email field has a specific format required and needs to be synchronized with the Joomla user account email address.
So if you need to customize them, you need to edit the view where they are displayed.
However, in your case, I wouldn't change them. I would simply change the "registration" setting of the HikaShop configuration to "simplified with password".
It will remove the username and name fields and the username will automatically be filled with the email address of the customer. That way, they don't have to think about having a username and it is transparent to them.
