How to set up a glossary

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
How to set up a glossary

Solution:
Using Toolset Blocks you can create only post type views and we will require taxonomy view to create glossary. So, in this case, you have to go with Classic views.

Hi, I know this is not part of toolset, but could you advise me on how to setup a glossary and then be able click terms on a page to see their definition.
Any pointers to tutorials, articles or plugins would be very much appreciated.
Thanks

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

As I understand, you will have a post type X with taxonomy namely (for instance) "alphabets" that will have terms setup as A to Z and each post of post type X will belongs to any of the taxonomy term from A to Z. Now, you want to display A to Z alphabets at top and when you click on any of the alphabet lets say A, it should filter the posts and display the results with A.

If above is true, for now, Toolset Blocks you can create only post type views and we will require taxonomy view. So, in your case, you have to go with Classic views.

Please check the following related ticket where I shared the solution and please let me know if you require further assistance.
