Main features of the current version are:
- Setup at least one wanted Wiki base and several other options at a backend page
- Integrate the Wiki tooltip in Posts and Pages using a handy popup in Gutenberg editor or simple shortcodes

Can I use any Wiki installation as base for my tooltips?
Sure, as long as the used installation provides an API structured like the API of MediaWiki it will work perfectly! You can use one of the public Wikipedias or setup your own Wiki URL.
Can I use several Wikis at the same time within my WordPress?
Since version 1.4.0 the plugin provides the opportunity to manage multiple Wiki URLs! The wanted Wiki can be chosen via an attribute in the shortcode.
Am I able to style the links to Wiki pages in another way than all other links in the blog?
Yes, you can define extra CSS style properties that are used at all links to Wiki pages!
Can I disable tooltips for mobile access?
Since version 1.7.0 you can define a minimum screen width that is necessary to show the tooltips!
Can I use the content of a certain section instead the complete Wiki page?
Since version 1.9.0 you can request a section by its title (anchor) using an extra attribute of the shortcode (section="anchor-of-section")!
