Description
This code makes a glossary page and category along with a button to add an entry. If your wiki needs a glossary it will work great. it works my using a new page module to add pages to the glossary category and then lists all pages in the glossary category alphabetically with previews using the pages module.
Code
[[module NewPage category="Glossary" button="Add Page to Glossary"]]
[[module Pages category="Glossary" preview="true"]]
In action
There is an example on http://thehurl.wikidot.com/glossary

Steven has made this work beautifully!!!
Finished for now… I also am working on a glossary, it works but since ListPages does not work recursively… pages that are generated with ListPages can not contain this PopUp… So it only works (the glossary) with simple pages. Coming soon.

I've made some modifications to the original code…
Code
[[module NewPage category="glossary" template="template:glossary" button="New Definition" size="50" parent="glossary"]]
[[module ListPages category="glossary" order="titleAsc" perPage="20"]]
* {{%%title%%}} [[[[%%page_unix_name%% | edit]]]]
> %%first_paragraph%%
[[/module]]- NewPage module - longer text entry field, auto-assign parent to glossary, use a template (optional) which includes the NextPage/PreviousPage modules.
- ListPages module - Print title page with its page link as "edit", display first paragraph in a quotation box (assuming your definitions will always remain one paragraph long), 20 definitions per page in ascending order.

I would like to show a "create this page." after a user search returns back "Sorry, no results found for your query."
Is ther a way to do this?
You can add a NewPage module to appear all the time, whether there are any results or not.
Changing content based on a module's results though, is impossible.

Is there any way to subdivide the glossary or create multiple separate glossaries on a single site that don't automatically use the existing entries?
This is awesome! It really helped me on my site, although I had to modify the code a bit! To see how I used it, check out my site.
