Video Use-Case


Introduction

The WordPress Glossary plugin allows you to quickly build a dictionary, encyclopedia, wiki, online library, or glossary page with popup tooltip info boxes. 

The Glossary Community Terms add-on lets your site visitors suggest terms to your Glossary and manage them. You can moderate each new term and categorize them automatically.

With the Glossary PeepSo Integration add-on the WordPress Glossary plugin integrates with the PeepSo social network. It parses PeepSo content to show tooltip for glossary terms, each member can create his own terms and show them in his own glossary page.

Use Case Assumptions

In this example we will consider how to let your users create their own terms, how to parse and show them in PeepSo content, and how users can see the whole Glossary list straight from their PeepSo profiles.

We consider that you have already bought and configured the base WordPress Glossary plugin and the Glossary Community Terms add-on, but not installed PeepSo and the Glossary PeepSo integration add-on.
