Case sensitive matching

-

This setting specify if an entry should be found with the exact case as it is in order to be automatically linked. -

Note that this flag does not limit that a concept could be contained insidee another: Use the Whole Words Matching flag instead. +

This setting specifies whether matching exact upper and lower case is + necessary when performing automatic linking to these entries.

For example, if this is turned on, then a word like "html" in a forum + posting will NOT be linked to a glossary entry called "HTML".

Display format

-

This setting specify the way the entries will be shown within the glossary. The system has two built-in formats: Default and continuous. -

Also, there are three more display formats: -

+

This setting specifies the way that each entry will be shown within the glossary. The default formats are:

+
+
+
Simple Dictionary:
+
looks like a conventional dictionary with separate entries. No authors are displayed and attachments are shown as links.
+
Continuous:
+
shows the entries one after other without any kind of separation but the editing icons.
+
Full with Author:
+
A forum-like display format showing author's data. Attachments are shown as links.
+
Full without Author:
+
A forum-like display format that does not show author's data. Attachments are shown as links.
+
Encyclopedia:
+
Like 'Full with Author' but attached images are shown inline.
+
FAQ:
+
Useful for displaying lists of Frequently Asked Questions. It automatically appends the words QUESTION and ANSWER in the concept and definition respectively.
+
+

If you want to create your own format, you should create a .PHP file and give it a number as its name. See into mod/glossary/formats which should be the next number. Note that numbers 0 and 1 are reserved. -

Then, create a function called glossary_print_entry_by_format($course, $cm, $glossary, $entry) and dump all your creativity on it. -

The last step is to insert a new entry in every language pack you use called displayformat[number], and give it a short but meaningful description. +

Moodle Administrators can create new formats as follows: +

    +
  1. Look in mod/glossary/formats ... you should see a numbered file for every existing format. +
  2. Copy one of these and call it another number N (note that 0 and 1 are reserved). +
  3. Edit this file accordingly to create your own format (some PHP knowledge required). +
  4. Finally, insert a new entry in every language pack you use called displayformatN, and give it a short but meaningful name. +

Whole words matching

-

If you stablish that an entry could be automatically linked from other resources, then, -if you set this flag also, only those concepts which words match completelly with this entry, will be linked. -

Note that this flag does not force the match of the case. Use the Case Sensitive flag instead. \ No newline at end of file +

If automatic linking is enabled, then turning this setting on will force only + whole words to be linked. + +

For example, a glossary entry named "construct" will not create a link inside the word "constructivism".

Automatically link glossary entries

-

If you stablish that a glossary or an entry should be automatically linked, the entries affected will be automatically linked whenever they are found in other resources (forums, comments, etc). -

If you do not want a specific entry to be linked, you should insert it between the <nolink> and </nolink> tags in the source of the HTML. -

Also, if a category is found, it will also be linked. Note that category linking is case sensitive. +

Turning this feature on will allow the entries in this glossary to be automatically linked whenever + the concept words and phrases appear throughout the rest of the same course. This includes forum + postings, internal resources, week summaries, journals and so on.

+ +

If you do not want particular text to be linked (in a forum posting, say) then you should add <nolink> and </nolink> tags around the text.

+ +

Note that category names are also linked.
