Glossary?

[TorontoJoe]

I hope this is in the correct location. I imagine it's about an add-on but I'm trying to find on. The users on my recently migrated xF forum are asking for a glossary of terms. In searching I'm surprised I can only find one by Scandal. This might be fine but I can't seem to locate in instance of it running somewhere.

If there is some other feature under a different name that might allow me similar functionality I would appreciate being pointed in the correct direction.

It would be nice if there were something really slick like this, https://www.babypips.com/crypto/glossary , but something much more simple could get the job done as well.

I'm really hoping I can do better than a manually entered list in on a thread.

Thanks all

Nothing like that, but I have a read only glossary forum where each thread is dedicated to explain one term. I then use the keywords addon, so when these acronyms or terms turn up in a post, they are auto linked to that term in the glossary. IMO this solution is far slicker than having to go look it up.

I apologize, but I’m not really following… Can you link me to an example?

It's not good, this makes a link while a glossary is when I click on the word a box comes out that explains the meaning of that word (or that phrase)...
It was very good with vbulletin

I have it running on my site linking to my Wiki. Here is an example page. https://jeep-cj.com/community/threads/why-are-some-words-orange-new-auto-link-feature.65754/

You can have a hover box with delay per key word as shown in the page linked above.
