Excerpt field for glossary term not showing/hidden?

    Hey! Thank you for sharing this plugin on WordPress.org

    If I understand it correctly, the tooltip will show the glossary excerpt if existing, or autogenerate the excerpt from the content, limiting it to 60 characters by default.

    However, like another user, the Excerpt field does not show up for me for the glossary term. I have the Summary, Categories and Featured Image, that’s it.

    And no, the Excerpt Field is not hidden in the block editor settings 😉

    Tested this on three different sites, running WP 6.5 and the Blocksy Theme or Twenty Twenty Four

    The screenshot above is from WordPress Playground, where Glossary was the only plugin uploaded, so no conflicts there.

    Besides that, the Glossary tooltip works fine! It just shows the truncated glossary term content, instead of the missing excerpt.

    No errors in dev console.

    What am I missing?

    So the support for the excerpt right now is only on the PRO version as I can see in the code, but I am doing a new release that move the support also on the free version right now.
    The thread you linked is from 2 years ago and a lot of things changed probably in the meantime.

    About your explanation, yes if the excerpt is not defined it will generate automatically by the settings

    The new release is available and checked on playground, now excerpt is also on free version.
    I am closing it as the problem is fixed.

    Ah. I somehow missed that the glossary term excerpt was a pro feature. Kind of you to make it available in the community version as well. 👍 Will still go pro, though — this is a paid project.

    Fix confirmed! Tooltip now only shows excerpt. Thank you for the quick support – it is much appreciated.
