Note: this feature is available only in Pro+ and Ecommerce editions of the WordPress Glossary plugin.

In this article, we will show you how to use filters and categories to make your search in the glossary faster and more efficient.

To access the Glossary Index Page, click the link highlighted below:

Link to the glossary index page - Wiki for WordPress

To change your filter options go to: Admin Dashboard → CM Tooltip Glossary → Settings → Glossary Index Page.

Glossary index page settings - Wiki WordPress Plugin
Glossary index page settings

Scroll down until you see the section Search, Categories & Tags.

There you will see different options, and the ones we will focus on are Show only relevant categories and Show only relevant tags.

Options for displaying only relevant categories and tags - WordPress as a Wiki
Options for displaying only relevant categories and tags

“Show only relevant categories” and “Show only relevant tags” checked

When these two options are enabled, you will see all the categories in the menu of the Glossary Index Page. Example:

Example of the glossary index page with all categories and tags - WordPress Internal Linking Plugin
Example of the glossary index page with all categories and tags

When you search for one of the terms in your glossary (in the example below we are searching for Conversion), you will only see the categories to which the term belongs too.

Displaying only relevant categories and tags in search results - WordPress Knowledge Base Plugin
Displaying only relevant categories and tags in search results

“Show only relevant categories” and “Show only relevant tags” not checked

In this case, the Glossary Index Page will still look the same as before, but when you are typing your query, you will still see all of the possible categories

If the relevant options are disabled, all categories and tags will be displayed in search results - Knowledge Base WordPress Plugin
If the relevant options are disabled, all categories and tags will be displayed in search results

Tags will be working in the same way. When only “Selected relevant tag” is checked, you will only see the tag related to the term you were searching. When this option is not checked you will still see all the available tags.
