Overview

About this plugin

This plugin displays a keyword description in a popup whenever a term or post-tag in the text of a post or page matches that keyword or its synonyms.

ENGLISH

  • Frontend
  • The Term Description Popup plugin displays a keyword description in a popup if a term in the text of a post or page matches that keyword or its synonyms. The term is marked with an icon. Clicking the icon opens a popup with the keyword description.
  • If a keyword has no description, the keyword is discreetly highlighted in the text.
  • The keywords are taken from the standard WordPress “terms” table, and the keyword descriptions from the “term_taxonomy” table.
  • Backend
  • The following settings can be configured in the plugin administration:
  • Which taxonomies (pages or posts) the plugin should be active on
  • The icon that leads to the description can be selected
  • You can choose whether to highlight terms without a description
  • You can choose how these terms should be highlighted
  • You can choose whether to improve the plugin’s performance through a cache
  • The cache can be deleted manually
  • Pages and posts can be specifically excluded from the plugin’s effects
  • The number of pages or posts for “scrolling” can be specified using the exclusion selection function
  • Numbers of main-languages are supported for the backend
  • Handle synonyms of terms or post-tags

Finally, keywords and their descriptions make sense again, after quickly losing their relevance to search engines. It is now also possible to create a glossary including synomyns using board resources and use it directly in the content without maintaining additional tags. What’s interesting is that the content is automatically supplemented with keyword descriptions, which has a huge SEO effect on the website’s visibility.

Google and other search engines, as well as various AI models, will appreciate the additional content. All you have to do is activate the plugin and enter keywords and their descriptions.

DEUTSCH

  • Frontend
  • Das Plugin Term Description Popup zeigt die Beschreibung eines Schlagwortes als Popup an, wenn ein Begriff im Text eines Posts oder einer Page diesem Schlagwort oder dessen Synonymen entspricht. Der gefundene Begriff wird mit einem Symbol versehen. Ein Klick auf das Symbol öffnet ein Popup mit der Beschreibung zum Schlagwort.
  • Sollte ein Schlagwort keine Beschreibung aufweisen, wird das Schlagwort im Text dezent markiert.
  • Die Schlagworte werden der Standard WordPress-Tabelle “terms” entnommen und die Beschreibungen der Schlagworte aus der Tabelle “term_taxonomy”.
  • Backend
  • In der Administration des Plugin können folgende Einstellungen vorgenommen werden:
  • Für welche Taxonomien (Seiten oder Beiträge) soll das Plugin wirken
  • Das Symbol, welches zur Beschreibung führt, kann ausgewählt werden
  • Es kann gewählt werden, ob Begriffe ohne Beschreibung markiert werden sollen
  • Es kann gewählt werden, wie diese Begriffe hervorgehoben werden sollen
  • Es kann gewählt werden, ob die Leistung des Plugins durch einen Cache verbessert werden soll
  • Der Cache kann manuell gelöscht werden
  • Seiten und Beiträge können gezielt von der Wirkung des Plugin ausgeschlossen werden
  • Die Anzahl der Seiten oder Beiträge für das “Blättern” durch die Ausschlussauswahl-Funktion kann festgelegt werden
  • Einige Haupt-Sprachen werden für das Backend unterstützt
  • Synonyme für Schlagworte verwalten

Endlich bekommen die Schlagworte und deren Beschreibung wieder Sinn, nachdem sie für Suchmaschinen fast keine Rolle mehr spielen. Es ist also nun mit Boardmitteln möglich, ein Glossar inkl. Synonyme aufzubauen und direkt im Content zu verwenden, ohne zusätzliche Tags zu pflegen.

Interessant ist dabei, dass der Content durch die Beschreibungen zu den Schlagworten automatisch ergänzt wird und dies einen gewaltigen SEO Effekt auf die Sichtbarkeit der Website hat. Goggle und Co. sowie diverse KI-Modelle werden sich über den zusätzlichen Content freuen.

Sie müssen nichts weiter tun, als das Plugin zu aktivieren und Schlagworte und deren Beschreibung zu erfassen.
