[3.2.9-3.3.x][RC] Glossary 3.0.20

[Bymemor]

First, thanks for this great extension.

Please, could someone teach me how can user search for term in the glossary ?

I use phpBB navbar search extension but it is not able to find glossary terms.

[pierredu]

When the extension is installed, there should be a link in the navbar. Click on it and the extension will display a table with all glossary items. Use CTRL F to make a search. You also have a series of links toward the initial letters of the items.

[Bymemor]

Yeah, it sounds great, but if you imagine glossary with 30.000 terms it is hard to find the word with link to their first letters. Ctrl+ F is great for desktop, but when it comes to phone and mobile users and also web-view apps it doesn't work for them. Sure there are also ways to find word in page inside mobile browser settings, but it is not practical.

So, what would I suggest ?

Writing a little script that make it possible on glossary page to find words like browser's find in page function. I understand that I can't want that from you, but it would be useful and amazing if you make search bar for glossary page if you have time.

And I already found script like I wanted , but this just doesn't work only on Safari (browser for apple devices).

Here's the link for that script : http://www.javascripter.net/faq/searchin.htm

Maybe you could improve this code and hopefully add search bar to glossary page.

The glossary can't be a dictionnary. On my board, there are 700+ terms. To manage 30000 terms, you would need another tool, IMHO.

Hi,

I have installed the Glossary and can everything works fine, until I attempt to create a new glossary term. I'm running phpBB 3.3.0 w/ PHP Version 7.3.17-1.

Here's the SQL error I'm getting:

General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysqli ]

In aggregated query without GROUP BY, expression #2 of SELECT list contains nonaggregated column 'AstronomyphpBB.phpbb_glossary.term_id'; this is incompatible with sql_mode=only_full_group_by [1140]

SQL

SELECT COUNT(*) as nb, term_id FROM phpbb_glossary WHERE term = 'Deep-Sky Object'

Just an update. I was able to get everything working correctly on my "Live" forum so the problem is apparently something to do with the 'Test forum" on my home server.

Another question however. Perhaps you can tell me where I can change the default text color for the noted Glossary terms. It appears to be a dark brown and I need something lighter because of my use of Dark styles.

Thanks again!

This is exactly what I was looking for!

[pierredu]

Thanks for the follow-up about this error.

The whole styling is in the file lmdi/gloss/styles/prosilver/theme/gloss.css.

[ghswen]

I fixed the glossary text colors. So far so good.

We have begun to load input and discovered another problem. I'm sure this has to do with the default style we are using but perhaps there's a way we can fix it.

When a member clicks on a highlighted Glossary term the definitions display towards the left of the screen and this is what we see.

I'm assuming this is also a 'styles' issue? Can it be fixed on my end?

Download the latest version from the github repository.
This should cure this problem.

First off.
Thanks so much for your help! Our Glossary is up and running. We have almost 100 terms in place. These are Astronomy related terms that are really helping our beginners.

We are getting an error thrown from specific terms. I will post an image of an example. In addition to throwing the error message at the top, it also displays the highlighted term but with additional text included, sometimes not related to the word that is highlighted.

Is this perhaps something we are entering incorrectly when we load the glossary terms?

I can't display your picture with suficient resolution to understand.
Send me the dump of the phpbb(3)_glossary table.
I'll give you my address in a mp.

[ghswen]

Sorry to take so long to reply. I have read through other posts and determined that I'm having the same problem as member Holder (see page 29). If a description of a term uses a word that is also in the glossary it automatically adds additional text after the displayed word in a post. I hope this is something you can fix in the future.

[pierredu]

I'll check when I come back from holidays.

Are you sure you're using latest version? See first post of the topic for github address.
