I thought you said it was _geeky_… 🤪 ---

Please note (you probably did already…) that English is not my native language. 😅 ---

I need to urgently clarify – in no way was i mocking you, & i sincerely apologise that my attempted irony failed so badly. I was _admiring_ your suggestion specifically because it _is_ geeky, just as you said. Clearly i need to stick with my day job, sorry. ---

No worries mate! 😉 It was clear to me that you were not mocking or anything like that. I’m also learning English here along the way. Especially various _sayings_ that are not easily understood if you don’t talk to (natively speaking) people every day… 😅 ---

Hmm apparently that plugin’s 4years old and has not been updated for the last 5 months. It’s possible there won’t be a fix. @Bryanpwo is there a way you can safely add a few lines of javascript to the forum? I could write a small block of code that would add the missing tooltips. ---

Did they answered you on Discourse about the alt="[country\_code]" variable that is missing ? I did something fast to push the code on the forum but wait for this variable ! There is **.location** class that I found when you click on the user profil if the user added his country… ---

Is not you @anon31549144 that pushed the PR on Discourse for tooltip on country flag ? ---

No, I just made a request for such a change, but i don’t know ruby. I was inviting anyone who knows to make a pull request. ---

I will look for that when the migration is done. At this moment I’m installing the new server and I’m reading in on how to migrate the Discourse forum. ---

_What would a geek do?_ I wrote a very simple FF addon to show country names between the username and the flag. Its not on the store, so manual installation the way. > **[GitHub - flyingcakes85/discourse-show-country-name: A Firefox addon to show...](https://github.com/flyingcakes85/discourse-show-country-name)** > > A Firefox addon to show country names against users on Discourse forums - GitHub - flyingcakes85/discourse-show-country-name: A Firefox addon to show country names against users on Discourse forums An example screenshot: ![Screenshot_2020-08-05 Balloon Tip for Forum Member National Flags](https://forum.endeavouros.com/uploads/default/original/2X/b/bbb7b33683622b87076f242dd781f5fc637815ca.png) Edit: I’m absolutely not a geek btw. ---

Don’t mention it, it was just a 2 x geekier way to do the same as right click inspect element 🙂 ---
