Bootstrap popover content cannot changed dynamically

Question

I use the code as follows:

$(\".reply\").popover({
  content: \"Loading...\",
  placement: \"bottom\"
});

$(\".reply\").popover(\"toggle\");

Yes you can, in fact the easiest way haven't been suggested yet.

Here's my way ->

    var popover = $('#example').data('bs.popover');
    popover.options.content = "YOUR NEW TEXT";

popover is an object if you want to know more about it, try to do console.log(popover) after you define it to see how you can use it after !

EDIT

As of Bootstrap 4 alpha 5, the data structure is a bit different. You'll need to use popover.config.content instead of popover.options.content
