## Description

Hints enables you to provide a better UX with respect to links/topics. Some keywords/
words, need more explanation or/and external resources to be explained further, 
if the user needs to know more. Normally, you would achieve this by creating a link/
anchor to that resource. Hints, makes it possible for your users to get additional
information, about a topic/resource, without leaving your post. Too many links in
a post, do spoil the broth.

**Features:**

 * Small, Simple to use and install, lightweight.
 * Uses jQuery, since WP comes bundled with it.
 * No settings, no nothing. Just install and start using it.
 * Shortcodes based.
 * Two options to set within shortcodes. See the tutorial video below.

**Tutorial Video:**

### Usage

### Use shortcodes within posts, as shown below.

    ```
    [hints unique_id="hints"] A shortcode is a WordPress specific code, that lets you do all kinds of nauthy things. More about WordPress' shortcodes. [/hints]

    [hints unique_id="options" custom_text="info about options"] 'unique_id' identifies each infocard or hint uniquely. As the option name suggests, the id has to be unique. If not supplied, one is generated auto-magically for you.  The other option is 'custom_text'. If this option is set, the default plus icon is not used. This option is only for convenience. Using this option, may prove to be redundant.[/hints]
    ```

## Installation

based. No settings, no nothing.
