Using hovertemplate
on a boxplot breaks the tooltips for data points, it simply doesn't appear at all:
# Using hoverinfo (works)
plot_ly() %>% add_trace(y = 1:10, type = "box", hoverinfo = "y", boxpoints = "all", pointpos = 0)
# Using hovertemplate (doesn't work)
plot_ly() %>% add_trace(y = 1:10, type = "box", hovertemplate = "%{y}", boxpoints = "all", pointpos = 0)
When inspecting the hovertemplate graph using my browser's dev tools I found that this appears in the console when I move the mouse over a data point:

hovertemplate
works as expected for other graph types, like e.g.:
plot_ly() %>% add_trace(y = 1:10, type = "bar", hovertemplate = "%{y}")
