BuddyPress Avatar Bubble

Description

After moving your mouse pointer on a BuddyPress user or group avatar (or clicking it) you will see a bubble with the defined by admin information about this user (or group).

Ajax calls save your bandwidth and time spent on waiting. So if you want your users can easily get information about themselves on a fly – use CD BP Avatar Bubble.

FAQ

Does it really use ajax for data-calls?

Yes, it does. No need to wait until page will be loaded.

Does plugin work with avatars only?

Yes, I think no need to add such functionality to users links or groups avatar.

Why doesn’t this plugin work on my site?

Are you using it on a live site? If not, there might be problems, because I didn’t tested in Denwer, WAMP or LAMP. Try it live.
Try to reinstall the plugin too.
