Bootstrap's tooltip doesn't disappear after button click & mouseleave

This is because trigger is not set. The default value for trigger is 'hover focus', thus the tooltip stay visible after a button is clicked, until another button is clicked, because the button is focused.

So all you have to do is to define trigger as 'hover' only. Below the same example you have linked to without persisting tooltips after a button is clicked :

$('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip({    trigger : 'hover'})  

the doc example in a fiddle -> http://jsfiddle.net/vdzvvg6o/

I know over a year old, but I couldn't get this to work with any examples here. I've had to use the following:

$('[rel="tooltip"]').on('click', function () {    $(this).tooltip('hide')})

This also shows the tooltip again upon hover.

Hi i have little solution for this issue. When other solutions doesn't work just try this one:

$('body').tooltip({        selector: '[data-toggle="tooltip"], [title]:not([data-toggle="popover"])',        trigger: 'hover',        container: 'body'    }).on('click mousedown mouseup', '[data-toggle="tooltip"], [title]:not([data-toggle="popover"])', function () {        $('[data-toggle="tooltip"], [title]:not([data-toggle="popover"])').tooltip('destroy');    });

This is solution for drag and drop too.So i hope this help someone :)
