Easily Create Glossary for Third-Party Plugin Data in WordPress Tooltips Plugin
Hello, dear WordPress Tooltip Plugin users! I hope this message finds you well and enjoying a wonderful day with your family. Recently, we received a support ticket from a valued user who wanted to insert a third-party listing plugin shortcode into the tooltip popup window but faced some difficulties. Upon investigating, we found that the plugin uses a unique method to load content from the backend. Rather than utilizing WordPress custom post types, the author created multiple dedicated tables, which complicates integration with other plugins. After putting in considerable effort, we are excited to announce that we’ve addressed this issue for our WordPress Tooltips users. You can now directly retrieve content from third-party plugins using their tables with ease.Then we released WordPress Tooltips Pro Plus 33.4.8 , enabling tooltip users to generate directories from any WordPress table for external data. Then our wordpress tooltips plugin developer said this requirement will help glossary users to create wordpress glossary for third-party plugin data too. Allowing a WordPress tooltip user to create a glossary from any external table (outside of WordPress) can provide several significant benefits to glossary users:
Expanded Data Sources: Users can pull in terms and definitions from various external databases or resources, allowing for a richer and more comprehensive glossary that goes beyond the limitations of WordPress content.
Diverse Content Integration: By leveraging external tables, users can integrate content from other platforms or systems, ensuring that the glossary remains relevant and includes terminology used across multiple contexts or industries.
Better Contextualization: External data can offer broader contexts for terms, providing users with additional definitions, examples, or usage cases that are not confined to their WordPress site, thus enhancing understanding.
Dynamic Updates: If the external data source is regularly updated, the glossary can automatically reflect these changes, ensuring that users always have access to the most current information without manual intervention.
Customization and Personalization: Users can tailor the glossary to their specific needs by selecting which external tables to include, allowing for a more personalized experience based on their audience’s interests or requirements.
Time and Resource Efficiency: Manually creating glossary entries can be tedious. Automatically generating entries from external sources can save time and reduce the workload for users, allowing them to focus on other important tasks.
Interoperability: Supporting the creation of glossary entries from external tables can enable better data interoperability across various platforms, making it easier to consolidate information for users who utilize multiple systems.
Enhanced User Experience: Providing a more extensive and well-rounded glossary can improve the overall user experience on the site, making it easier for visitors to find relevant information quickly.
SEO Benefits: A more comprehensive glossary can lead to improved SEO performance by including terms and phrases that are more widely searched for in external data, potentially driving more organic traffic to the site.
By allowing glossary creation from external tables, users gain a powerful tool that enhances their website’s functionality, interactivity, and content richness.
… much more , so we developed version 33.5.8 of WordPress Tooltips Pro Plus for wordpress tooltip users to help WordPress tooltip users to create a glossary from any external table 🙂
How to Create Glossary for Data from Any WordPress Table?
1: Please click “download wordpress tooltip” menu item to download wordpress tooltip pro plus plugin which version >= 33.5.8
2. Generate a WordPress post and utilize the shortcode [ glossary_via_tables ] to directly build a glossary from a third table. It should appear as follows:
[ glossary_via_tables table=’stock’ fields=’stock_name,stock_price’ ]
In this case, the table in question is ‘stock,’ which is present in your database. You can choose the specific fields you want to show in the directory. For example, I only require the fields ‘quote_title’ and ‘quote_content.’ The WordPress Tooltips plugin will automatically pull data from the ‘stock’ table to generate the glossary.
What we doing now:
1: we are developing a new version of wordpress tooltips plugin to allow glossary users add a caption at the top of the glossary
2: in the new version, users can insert unlimited table fields in the shortcode
3: we are re-design the UI with a new pretty style with more functionality
A glossary looks like this:
