Hi Xerte Community,
I have noticed that when using some Themes in Xerte (I can't remember which Themes) the glossary definition is not displaying when the end-user hovers the mouse over the glossary word on the page.

For example the Theme: Dark Blue Grey. Attached are screenshots.

Has anyone tested which Themes work and provide the glossary text definition overlay text bubble on the page and which themes don't provide the glossary definition text when hovering the mouse over the term on the page?

Is this a bug or should I avoid using certain Themes if I would like definition text to display when mouse hovers over the term on the page?

Thank you in advance for any replies, answers and response.
Best wishes
Anne

Hi Simon,
This is interesting. Is your Xerte a Public Xerte with URL or is it exported as a SCORM package?
Where do you display it? On a website CMS, eg Wordpress or on a VLE for example moodle or Blackboard?

I think where and how the Xerte is displayed may make a difference to Glossary.
What do you think?
Best wishes
Anne

I've set it to public access and embedded it in a web page with an iframe. You can see it at:

(This forum won't let me include a complete URL.)
I'm afraid I have no idea what is causing your issue. Perhaps you could provide a link to the project?

Hi Simon and Xerte Community,
I have tested again today and the glossary text is now working with Theme: Dark Blue Grey.
The Xerte is a SCORM zip package uploaded in to a VLE. Glossary text is working now.

Thanks for trying to replicate the previous problem I had. Whatever the problem was, I don't have that problem now which is good news.
Best regards
Anne
