I love this plug-in. very cool and easy to use. The programmer (Bing) is very helpful and helps whenever you need support.

I purchased the commercial 1.2 version. It works fine, though using it with the WYSIWYG editor is tricky. No problems if you write your content in HTML, but whose clients do that?
I cannot control the width of the hover box when it contains just text. They all appear very narrow and tall like in the example on the developer's own website.
I registered on their website to discuss these issues in their forum, but they've disabled replies. Many forum threads have hundreds of views but not a single one has any replies.
This extension will create hover boxes for you, like it says on the tin. However, don't expect to be able to discuss any issues in an open forum or read how others before you have resolved problems.

Works pretty good. Impressed.
Isn't working in Virtuemart as far as I can see.
Any possibilities?

As far as I can tell, if you want to use any bot inside a component, it probably will fail. The reason is being that the bot processing happens to a content during the content rendering. A component has no concept of "content", unless the component is programmed to do so.
