Plugin Description
Build a glossary on your site, and link terms in your posts to it.
Reasons for using wp-glossary plugin:
- External glossary sites don’t have all the words and terms you need.
- You want to keep your visitors on your site (not send them to an external glossary site).
- You don’t want the adverts that the external site popups come with.
Keep your visitors on your site, keep their experience consistent and pleasant using your theme.
Once activated you add glossary terms (custom post type) and link to those terms from inside your own content using the powerful WordPress shortcode functionality.
