Say I have a glossary term that references another glossary term within the definition. Is it possible to have a hyperlink on that term, so that if it is clicked on, it will take the user to that other glossary term?
I have heard of hyperlinking from a presentation to a glossary term. However, I've never heard of linking from one Engage glossary item to another in the same file. Unfortunately, it's not currently possible in Engage and I am unaware of any workarounds.
Brian, that's okay. How would I hyperlink from the presentation to the glossary term? That would still be useful to my presentation. By the way, thanks for your prompt responses.
Thanks, Joe just remember to run the macro everytime you publish. We are building 21 courses at the moment of over 140 slides each and the most frustrating thing is to be halfway through publishing and cannot remember if you published or not. Also keep an eye on case in the hyperlink and folder naming because it will play great on windows but if you are using a linux server it is case sensitive

Hi Robert
You can link within the glossary, if you add a hyperlink, it gives you an option of website or term.

Thanks for posting that link Phil.
Unbelievable timing with this post as I was just looking to do the same thing. Thanks Phil! Turned out to be easier than I thought it would be.
