 * after one of the recent plugin update (can’t say which), this plugin started 
   breaking admin area (e.g. salient theme admin area), getting the following error
   message all over:
    customwprest-admin.js?ver=5.5.1:52 Uncaught TypeError: $(…).
   tooltip is not a function
 * When deactivating this plugin, the admin panel is back to normal.

 * Thanks for noticing it, for the time being you can just remove tooltip() function
   on customwprest-admin.js?ver=5.5.1:52.
 * We will fix it in the next update.
 * Thanks,

 * Ah great, came here to report the issue but seems you’re on it. Hope it’s addressed
   as I really like this plugin and don’t want to change. Thanks for developing 
   🙂
 * Getting this from the jquery migrate helper, but I’m sure you are aware of it
