Popover does not get anchored to the triggering element

Question

So my Twitter Bootstrap popovers seem to be positionally challenged when the triggering element is contained within an element with the style

Answer 1

For BS 3 and above

you can use container: $(element)

Example:

let elem = $(this)
$(elem).popover({
    selector: '[rel=popover]',
    trigger: 'hover',
    container: $(elem),
    placement: 'bottom',
    html: true,
    content: 'Popover Content'
});
