Name Directory v1.30.3

**Name Directory: Build your own glossary!**

This plugin adds name/term directories (glossaries) to your WordPress installation.

The output on your website is like a glossary/index, including a search function.

This plugin supports multiple directories in one WordPress installation.

I recommend you to take a look at the screenshots, they illustrate more than words.

The Name Directory plugin was originally developed for ParkietenVilla.nl to show a directory of names to name your budgies.

**Create multiple directories and customize them!**

You can create multiple directories with this plugin.

Every directory can be embedded with a very simple shortcode which you can just copy-and-paste

in your own pages and posts. Every directory has a few configuration options that customize

the layout and functionality of the directory:

• Показать / скрыть заголовок

• Показать / скрыть описание

• Enter the subject of the directory (i.e.: movies, birds, countries, names)

• Показать / скрыть форму запроса

• Show/Hide submitter name

• Показать / скрыть функцию поиска (поиск имен / названий и описание)

• Show/Hide a horizontal rule between the entries

• Show/Hide all entries when the user has not chosen an index-letter yet

• Show/Hide the newest entries (and choose an amount of newest entries to show)

• Choose the amount of columns to display

• Whether to jump to the name directory when a visitor is using the search box (for onepage websites)

• When you embed a directory, you can configure it to start with a letter of your choosing. E.g.: start on letter J.

• You can limit the amount of words in the description (and display a «Read more» link which reveals the rest of the text

The administration view of this plugin has the familiar look and feel of (the rest of) the WordPress Administration panel.

I have done my best to enable some AJAX-features in the administration panel, so you can work efficiently while adding new entries.

Since v1.7 and v1.8, simple import and export functionality is also supported through .csv-files.

This plugin is also tested compatible with:

* the popular Members plugin which makes role permissions easy

* Relevanssi plugin, the better search plugin

**Try the plugin without installing it yourself.**
