Looking for a keyword definitions Plugin

  • I’m looking for a plugin that will either hyperlink to or show a definition of a word whenever a user clicks or hovers their mouse over certain words. I need to be able to select the words and the definitions that will be used.

    I’m assuming this can be done with a database. If anyone knows of a plugin similar to this, please let me know.

    So know one knows if one of these exists huh?

    I don’t know if one exists, but it shouldn’t be too hard to create if you wanted to go ahead and do it yourself. It should be pretty simple, actually.

    1. Create a database table with hyperlink/definition/keyword
    2. Create administration page where said things can be entered
    3. Hook into the content filtering
    4. Do some RegEx matching and create a hyperlink with a certain class for every matching keyword
    5. Hook in JS to do the pop up tip, if you want

    Straightforward, I think. You should give it a go!
