 * 1. Would like to be able to edit entries.
 * 2. Word highlighting such as underlining.

 * Also, it would be nice if the link were optionally clickable.

 * adamsmark,
 * Thank you for suggestions. Your suggestions will be included in one of the new
   versions.
 * But I didn’t understand what is “Also, it would be nice if the link were optionally
   clickable.”. Can you write it in details?
 * Thanks

 * I’m one of those people that hates links with hovering text. If users could click
   on the link before the definition pop-up window appeared, that would be nice.
   I don’t know if I’m explaining that right, but just visit MSNBC.com and place
   the cursor over the green-underlined text. A Bing window hovers over the text,
   which is annoying.

 * Hi,
    firt of all thanks for that great plugin, you did really good work. What
   I like to see also is the possibility to edit the entries. Is it possible to 
   insert a picture ?
 * adamsmark – if you tell your visitor how this thing works they will be happy 
   and appreciate the plugin

 * hi s_ruben, yes in the tooltip, that would look really cool, don’t you think ?
 * I just ran into a little problem, I am using qtranslate on my site, because we
   need 3 languages.
 * the code to insert a lange is the following
 * <!–:de–>german<!–:–><!–:es–>spanish<!–:–><!–:en–>english<!–:–>
 * when I put this in , it shows everything, there is also another way to put in
   languages using quicktags [:de]german[:es]spanish[:en]englisch
 * this does not work also … can you pls make your extension compatible with qtranslate
   this would be the coolest ever

   as a workaroung i am tryin to use something like “La Palma Diving Center EN” 
   or “La Palma Diving Center ES”, but I cannot save it because I also have “La 
   Palma Diving Center” …. what can I do … ?

 * Too bad the programmer of this nice extension has little interest in his creation.
   Does anybody know of another extension, that does the same ?

 * Dear diver66,
 * I have great interest in my creations, and I am sorry that I couldn’t answer 
   you for a month.
 * Please contact me from my personal website [http://rubensargsyan.com/contact/](http://rubensargsyan.com/contact/)
   and we will discuss about the plugin. I think you understand me why I don’t write
   my email here.
 * Thank you very much

 * Hello Ruben,
    Firstly, thanks for a great plugin. I found a glitch that was giving
   me some problems on my site until I figured out it had to do with your plugin.
 * When a word defined in your plugin shows up in a photo caption, the photo caption
   is getting dropped.
 * In media.php, the function img_caption_shortcode(), $caption is being returned
   empty and thus, an image that should be saving as:
 * `<div id="attachment_1" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 100px"><img
   class="size-large wp-image-1" title="the image description" src="http://website.
   com/image.png" alt="the image description" width="100" height="100" /><p class
   ="wp-caption-text">the image description</p></div>`
 * Is instead being displayed (in the client-side source) as only:
 * `<img class="size-large wp-image-1" title="the image description" src="http://
   website.com/image.png" alt="the image description" width="100" height="100" /
   >`
 * To work around this, I changed my preference to only create a pop-up for the 
   first instance, and I had to make sure on any page where a word is in a caption
   to write the word in the opening paragraphs before any photos.
 * Ideally, the plugin would allow captions with the dictionary words, but it would
   also be fine to simply exclude adding the dictionary to captions.
 * Thanks!

 * Oh, and if anyone else is having this issue, be assured your data is fine.
 * The captions show up normally in the admin view as well as in the database. It
   is only on the public side where the plugin is preventing the caption from being
   used…so disabling the plugin makes everything appear again.

 * The problem with posts images captions is solved in the new 1.4 version of the
   plugin.

 * When I include the glossary on a page, clicking on one of the alphabet letters
   opens a new browser window.
 * How can I restrict glossary to opening link in same window?
    Or can I show entire
   glossary on one page with alphabet linking to anchors in page? Or can I remove
   alphabet all together and just have listing of all glossary terms?

 * Dear s_ruben,
 * Thanks for the great plugin. I’ve literally looked through all of the possible
   glossary plugins and this is the only one that seems to be working just fine 
   with Unicode (and with WordPress 3.0.1).
 * And it’s the perfect solution for a multilingual blog – I simply needed to create
   separate entries for terms and their translations, and add the alphabet to the
   Options page.
 * My question is: if I have terms in two different languages and I need to show
   two different alphabets – English (in latin characters) and Armenian (in Armenian
   characters, so they won’t be mixed up at all), can I somehow separate those alphabets
   on the main glossary page? Say, put a line break after the English alphabet is
   listed, so that Armenian alphabet starts from the new line?
 * Thank you for your work, hope to see more plugins developed by you 🙂
