 * Hello, I am interested in some way to apply styling to the alt text when you 
   hover over a glossary term. Even the option to open a shadow box with the definition
   would be great (if clicked on). Is this possible? Donation required?

 * Are you talking about custom styles? There should be styles applied to the tooltip.
   See screenshot 4 for an example at [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-glossary-hover/screenshots/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-glossary-hover/screenshots/)

 * Yes, I cannot figure out what the appropriate settings should be if I want my
   terms to appear like the last screenshot on the link you provided: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-glossary-hover/screenshots/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-glossary-hover/screenshots/)
 * Basically, I want my glossary terms to “wrap text”
 * Thank you!

 * The screenshot shows the plugin working with the default settings and a default
   WordPress theme.
 * Can you try disabling all of your other plugins to see if the problem persists?

 * I am not using the default WordPress theme, thus this is likely my problem.

 * Well, to narrow down the problem, can you do each of the following:
 * Can you try reinstalling the plugin?
 * Does the problem still persist with all other plugins disabled?
 * Does the problem still persist when using a default WordPress theme?
