## 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.

## Installation

 1. Upload plugin folder `/cd-bp-avatar-bubble/` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Go to CD Avatar Bubble under Settings menu and make customisations as needed.

## 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.
