Copado Solutions
Copado displays smart tips on the Commit Changes page to show simple warnings and reminders. These tips can be managed by any Copado user with access to Custom Metadata Types.
You can enable/disable Copado tips yourself if you have enough permissions to edit your own user record. In order to see Copado tips, you need to go to your own user record and change the Show Copado Tips field to true. To disable Copado tips, just change the Show Copado Tips field to false.
How to Create a New Tip
- Go to Setup -> Custom Metadata Types -> Copado Smart Help.
- Click on Manage Records and then click on New:
- Populate all the relevant fields and click on Save:
- If Triggering Action has Copado Metadata Grid selection selected, depending on the Triggering Value Copado will display the tip. For instance, if you have created the tip for Copado metadata grid selection and custom field, the tip will pop up when you select a custom field from the grid:
How to Edit Existing Tips

How to Reference Copado Tips in a Custom Visualforce Page Outside of Copado
Copado tips are managed by a global visualforce component, so it is pretty easy to reference them outside of Copado's managed package.
Copy and paste the following code line into your visualforce page right after your Apex form and save i:.
<copado:CopadoSmartHelpComponent />
