3task Glossary helps you create professional glossaries, dictionaries, wikis and knowledge bases using the WordPress page hierarchy you already know. No complex setup required – just select a page as your glossary, and its child pages become your entries.

Perfect for:
* Glossaries – Define technical terms, jargon, acronyms
* Dictionaries – Build word lists with definitions
* Knowledge Bases – Create support documentation
* Wikis – Organize encyclopedia-style content
* Lexicons – Academic and scientific term collections

How It Works

  1. Create a WordPress page for your glossary (e.g., “Glossary”)
  2. Add child pages under it for each entry (e.g., “API”, “Database”, “Widget”)
  3. Activate the glossary in plugin settings
  4. Your glossary page automatically shows A-Z navigation and entry list
