Very happy client
by Sea Jay·2 months ago
This plugin works great. We uploaded a legal glossary to the CM Tooltip Glossary post type and, voila, tooltips customized for our client appear throughout almost 200 articles. Very happy client.
Excellent plugin and outstanding support.

Great experience with both the plugin and the support team. They quickly fixed a bug and even added a customization option I needed. Very responsive and professional — highly recommended.

The contact was brigand and fast. Thanks for helping!
The best glossary
by Mark Blackham·1 year ago
I’ve tried every glossary available and this one is by far the best. It may take a while to figure it all out but it’s worth the effort. The easiest way is to make a test page and then try out all the different features. You can also tailor it with your own CSS. I’ve had two problems, but the support staff fixed them up in less than two days.
Great Product, Excellent Support
by mlevison·2 years ago
We’ve been using CM Tooltip Glossary for several years now. We’ve built what I jokingly call the “World’s Largest Opinionated Agile and Scrum Reference Library”: see agilepainrelief.com glossary
The plugin has been indispensable. It allows me to focus on write the entries and not the WordPress plumbing.
On the rare occasions there have been problems, I reach out to their support and the problem gets solved.
People complain about the free version and I think that’s unfair to the developer. The developer needs to run a business and they deliver good value for their annual cost.
