Ok, thank you for the support, comments and suggestions on new features.
I have been working on updating the plugin and deciding on how best to move forward with it.
I have not implemented any of the features requested yet as they have required a little more time than I have had for them just yet. This release has the following updates:
# Override setting to force all posts to use a global “Apply to” setting
# On the edit posts page, the IMM-Glossary Settings are now in a dragable box
# On the admin pages, I updated and shifted the credit notice.
On my Todo list:
* Plural search
* Look at adding a WYSIWYG editor to term editor
* Term page, add ability to have anchors to each term or links to view terms on individual pages
Download:
IMM-Glossary.3.1.zip

Hi James,
I’m using this wonderfull plugin on my website (thanks a lot for your great work)
But I cannot success to make the popup definition appear when my cursor is over a term on a post/page. Do you have any idea ?
(sorry for my english mistakes … i’m a belgian guy ^^)
G’day Washisama,
My first guess would be to do with the css “z-index”.
With the plugin, if you edit the file IMM-Glossary/Style_Sheets/StyleSheet.css
There are 3 points for “z-index:99;”, try adjusting them to something like “z-index:9999;” and see if that helps?
Another guess could be that there is a JavaScript conflict.
Do you have a page you can please send me where the pop up should be working?
Thanks,
=-)
Hi again,
Thanks a lot for your answer
I’ve checked those z-index and attribuated them 9999;
(on the word “STR”)
Then i’ve looked for a kind of JQuery conflict, and I think that it can be my problem. As you can see on my , i have a lot of js source. But here it’s a post where the glossary popup is suppose to appear

Interesting, thanks for the link.
It appears that maybe there is a conflict with the Amazon/apature plugin you also have running? I assume that there should also be a pop up for the word “Travian”?
Can you please try turning off each plugin and see if they will work with out the other one.
Due to your issue I have just updated the prototype.js library for the next version release in the hope that this will fix your issue too. The old prototype library was 3 years old.
I just have 1 more small issue I have come across that I want to fix before I release the new version. It is having a conflict with a backup plugin which is not good
Thanks,
=-)
Hi
I’ve totally uninstalled Apture and the problem is abviously linked to the JQuery conflict … ^^
I’m currently checking if I can disable some or do any trick to make the whole work correctly
Awesome, I have sent you an email with the updated prototype js library.
Let me know if that solves the issue of the conflict.
Hope to have an official release for everyone else soon.
=-)
First of all thank you for the update
It corrected another conflict (an infobubble when mouse is over some links) but not for the Glossary, unfortunately
I’m maybe doing something wrong on the settings ?
Icon:No
Pop Ip:Custom Javascript & DHTML
Style: Dotted
Number of …:5
Apply to: All
Override …:Yes
DHTML Link: Yes
WYSIWIG: Yes
Is this correct ?
Interesting,
* I’m glad the prototype library update helped.
* I have set my settings the same as yours and everything works for me.
* I have visited your page again, and I am wondering, when you hover over any hyper link, your “title” tags have a fancy pop up. Is that being done by a plugin?
- if it is a plugin, can you please tell me which one so I can install it and try to find the conflict.
- or is it a feature of the theme? If so, is the theme freely available so I could install it and check that too?
* I’m receiving a couple of JavaScript errors on your site and they appear to be related to the prototype.js library, I do not have the same errors on my end.
Thanks,
=-)
For the fancy popup, it’s just some line code i’ve added to common.js (which is attached to the mail i’ve sent you)
Hope it will help
Have a nice day/night
Thanks
Thanks for your work on this plugin.
I couldn’t use the IMM version with my version of WordPress (2.9.2) or with my theme (emerald strecht), i don’t know.
A question : Is it possible to put an alphabetical list on the top of glossary page like on the example of IMM http://itsvista.com/glossary/
Thanks for your answer.
Regards
Philippe,
Thank you for the note on the alpha list. I will add it to the new feature list.
It appears though, that you might be able to use the following plugin to do the same thing, but I have not tried it myself yet.

Hello,
Please, help me,
I have a big problem with this plugin.
This message appears on my site : Query: SELECT * FROM `wp_IMM-Glossary` WHERE `Title` = ‘Tour d’enchère’ ORDER BY `ID` ASC
Error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘enchère’ ORDER BY `ID` ASC’ at line 1
I tried to change words and definitions but nothing happens.
If you get a solution for that…
After research on google, it seems that i’m not alone with this problem.
Thanks
G’day Philippe,
Yes, I’m aware of this error and working on the update to fix it, but it is a bit of a structural one that is taking a bit of work. it is being caused by the ‘ in your word “d’enchère”, if you removed it, it would then work, i.e, “denchère”
Working on it, please bare with me.
=-)
Thanks a lot for your fast answer.
I tried to change my word like you Told me and it works.
Immediatly after comes an other problem: Accents appears like “?” And many numbers like [[[1]]] pollute my pages.
How can i resolve it Without loosing all the terms i have put in the glossary?
I saw in mysql Database that title and definitions were encoded in Latin and not in utf8. I guess the problem of accents Comes from Here, I’m not sure .
Thank you in advance
Hi James,
Looks like you’ve been busy. I’m sure you are aware that you;ll have to do some minor changes to the data selecting now that WP 3.0 has arrived. I would like to use this plugin for my site but doesn’t seem to Activate correctly.
The user ID’s are a bit different with WP 3.0 and WPMU. Just an FYI.

Hello
Thank you very much for the work you have done with this plugin.
Been searching for a plugin like this for ages.. Great work!
There is something I´ve been working on, but it does not add up. My thought was to add extra fields in the Tools > IMM > Add Term & Definition
The idea is as follows, if it was a database on fish:
Name : Salmon
Definition : A fish who lives in ocean and river
Family : Salmonidae
Description : Typically, salmon are anadromous: they are born in fresh water, migrate to the ocean, then return to fresh water to reproduce.
The example is a bit quick, but the question I would like to ask is as follows: Is there any way to make more fields in the input form and in the database?
That would be neat:)
Frank
Im no php – expert this is the error when i try to add stuff in php:
Query: INSERT INTO `wp_ord_IMM-Glossary` ( `Title` , `Definition` , `Hvordan` , `Hvor` ) VALUES ( ‘fg’ , ‘fg’ , ‘fg’ , ‘fg’ )
Error: Unknown column ‘Hvordan’ in ‘field list’
Hello Frank,
Very good question and feature. This would make it much more flexible.
I have not had the time I would like to put into this plugin recently. Main reason I have not made time, was that I was looking at updating some DB items and realised there was actually a lot of work that could go into it.
I’m not 100% sure on the best way for you to go about your modification. I have not had a good look at it.
