Shared Glossary?

Hi David,

Not for me: see the screenshot below. The global glossary is on the frontpage.

Took me a while though to work out all the things to do:
  • as admin, Site Administration > Modules > Filters > Manage filters > enable Glossary Auto-linking
  • as admin on frontpage create a Global Glossary: in settings enable > Automatically link glossary entries
  • when creating an article in the Global Glossary, remember to check > This entry should be automatically linked.
Not exactly simple, is it?

Cheers,
Glenys

I followed your instructions as per your post.
It's for fact that all words that a part of the Global Glossary became highlighted in all coursers available.

BUT, as soon as you click on a highlighted word a popup window shows up with the following:
(words in parenthesis are TRANSLATION or Explanations)

Você está aqui (You are here)

* Life-Coaching Online (Moodle)
* / ▶ Introdução ao Coaching (Course Name)
* / ▶ Glossários (Glossaries)
* / ▶ Buscar (Search)

The definition for the clicked word (Life-Coaching) does not show on the pop up!

In the Main Glossary it is defined properly and set to Automatic Link.

Any ideas?

Regards

Hi Beto,

Maybe the fact that the highlighted autolink glossary word (Life-Coaching) is actually the name of a course on your site causes this problem.

Could you please try with a more "ordinary" word which is present a) in your global glossary and b) in a text in one of your site's courses.

Could you post one (or more) screenshots showing step-by-step the problem?

Thanks

Joseph

Thanks Joseph

I tried some other words (I've just stared with glossary creation- entries below.)

The same happens. It opens the pop up and IF I click for help for the page inside the pop up it send me to a page
http://docs.moodle.org/pt_br/Especial:Busca/mod/glossary/showentry

which states
Não há uma página intitulada como "mod/glossary/showentry".
(There is no page named "mod/glossary/showentry").

Thank you

Here are all glossary entries (bold on words):

Beto,
Can you try to enter into your glossary and in a text which will display linked words some ordinary words, i.e. not words which have "coach" in them, since this word happens in your moodle course titles. Words such as "computer" or "mouse", etc.
And please take a screen capture and post it here so I can see what your popup window looks like exactly.

Hello Joseph

Attached zip with grabbed images of pop up windows!

This is what I found out about the glossary empty definitions.

The glossary was created on the "front page" and marked as "primary glossary".

I followed the suggestions on this post to have it visible to all couses.( http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=155420&parent=680697 )
That is
Took me a while though to work out all the things to do:
as admin, Site Administration > Modules > Filters > Manage filters > enable Glossary Auto-linking
as admin on frontpage create a Global Glossary: in settings enable > Automatically link glossary entries
when creating an article in the Global Glossary, remember to check > This entry should be automatically linked.

The entries are indeed highlighted in all courses and in the session listing the courses in my front page, BUT a word definition is shown on the pop up window ONLY if it is on the text corresponding to the front page. If the same word belongs to the "Available Courses" area of the front page or the "categories" area of the front page the pop up window comes up but the definition for the word is not shown.

Also when the definition s shown, it doesn't wrap (text) properly on the pop up window size. Can I change window size or assign text wrapping?

I believe the attempt to make the glossary GLOBAL meaning available anywhere in the moodle installation failed to show the word definitions,while it worked to highlight them in the context of all courses etc.

Is there a proper method on how to make the Primary Glossary available to all courses, (all installation) ?


Thank you for any suggestions
