Install Guide | How to install plugins in Discourse |
In the future the plugin will show more tooltips but this seemed like a good start

The error is correct. This is not a Discourse theme.
You would need to install the plugin in your app.yml. 
There’s a link to some instructions in the OP.
Thanks, I didn’t notice. It’s just that the functionality is more like a theme component than a plugin 
To be honest, this is quite an old plugin so there’s a chance it could be converted to a theme component now. I know some of the others have made that leap. I’m afraid I don’t know specifically if it would be possible with this one though. 
It does add the topic contents to the load, so it can’t be done in a theme component. The data that it displays isn’t available without the plugin.
Does this also create a tooltip for topics referenced in text of posts? Also, would using the API of Discourse and loading the topic content on demand (thereby not requiring it to be a plugin, merely a JS-based enhancement) be a solution?
I don’t believe so.
If you don’t mind the extra API call from the browser (a problem if you do it many times on a single page), it should work.
