Create a Glossary

A glossary is a powerful tool for organizing and presenting terms or definitions in a structured and user-friendly way. With Typemill, you can create a glossary folder that automatically sorts its content alphabetically, ensuring easy navigation for your readers.

Note
This is a theme-specific feature. Currently, only the Cyanine theme and the Guide theme support a glossary view.

How to Create a Glossary

To create a glossary:

  1. Set Up a Folder: In Typemill, create a folder specifically for your glossary entries.
  2. Activate the Glossary Feature: Open the meta-tab of the folder and enable the glossary feature.

Once set up, Typemill will display all entries in alphabetical order, making it simple for users to locate the information they need.

Posts vs. Pages

The glossary view works with the content types posts or pages:

  • Pages: Use the content type "pages" if you want each glossary entry to appear in the navigation menu.
  • Posts: Use the content type "posts" to keep the entries hidden from the navigation menu.
