I'd like to add this:

Title="[wpv-post-title] [types field='author-credit'][/types] [types field='author'][/types]"

To this dynamic link:

<h2>[wpv-post-link]</h2>

So that when a user hovers over the link they get the title popup.

How do I do that?

Thanks

Dear John,

You can use shortcode [wpv-post-url] to output the post URL, and setup the link with HTML codes, for example:

<a href="[wpv-post-url]" title="[types field='author-credit'][/types] [types field='author'][/types]">[wpv-post-title]</a>

More help:
Outputs the URL to the current post.
