You don't need more
If you are looking for a simple Glossary plugin, this is it. You don't need more or any other gimmicky features.

Charming simple to use
After wasting hours trying to get other plugins to work, I resigned and finally found this one. It is very simple and intuitive to use and looks convincing, even without changing anything about the looks. I love it. Thanks a bunch and keep up the good work!

Could be excellent
I've been looking for something like this for a while. I used a similar plugin like this some time ago, but wasn't completely happy it. This one is as simple and straight forward as it gets. Kudos. EDIT 22-02-2022: Bringing this back to 2 stars for now as it is not so excellent as I thought. It crashes with PHP8. And PHP 7.4 is end of life at the end of this year. There is no follow up on the support section either so I guess I should look for a different solution. Too bad. Expected a little more from Automattic to be honest.

Simple, Easy to Use, Does the Job
Does what it says it will do. You create your glossary entries and it does the rest. I like that it defines a custom post type so that you can create a full page of glossary entries by filtering on the type. Only thing keeping it from being 5-stars is the absolute lack of customization options, but it's open source, and free, so that's definitely not a functional flaw. Nice plugin, folks. Thanks!
