CM Tooltip (CMTG) - Terms - Using Term Excerpts

Term Excerpt 

Back to User Guide

With the CM Tooltip Glossary plugin, you can easily create WordPress tooltip excerpts, allowing your tooltip to only display a quick teaser rather than the complete term definition.  

If you want the Tooltip to show only the “Excerpt” of the post instead of the Content within the term page, you need to first set up an “Excerpt” for the term.

Term Excerpts Example

WordPress tooltip Excerpts must be created using the “Excerpt” field on the post’s content editor. Currently we don’t yet support the automatically created excerpts.

Next, you need to check the Use term excerpt for hover box, in the plugin’s settings under Admin Dashboard → CM Tooltip Glossary → Settings → Tooltip tab → Tooltip - Content section.

Alternatively, if you want the tooltip to display the first paragraph of your term page unmodified, you can limit the number of characters that appear in the tooltip by entering their amount in the “limit tooltip length” field, which is under the tooltip tab in the plugin settings.
