WF-FAQ question

Hello
I am trying to use WF-FAQ as a glossary of technical terms. Is there another module that would work better?

Also I have a list of over 1000 terms that has to be entered is there a way I can automatically do this instead of entering them one by one? Can I create, say a text file and import it?

Thanks

You've used word yourself: glossary module.
Take a look within the Module/Themes on this site and you would have found it:

Just what I was looking for, thanks.

Now how do I import all the definitions that I have. Is there an easy way.

I've only had very limited experience with this module, but I don't think there is an "easy" way to import a lot of definitions... I think they have to be done one by one.

If you know how to do some scripting, I would suggest you have a look at the table structure for the module, and you can probably see how to write a simple script to insert all your data (from file or database or whereever it is now).

I actually changed my mind on this module. I think I'll stick with WF-FAQ since I can add images and have more control over the fonts. There must be a text to MySQL script some where that I can modify for this.

Thanks

The module team are about to release an updated version of the glossary module, I think it maybe more to what you are looking for
