Template:Glossaries==How can I turn on glossary auto-linking?==

The glossary auto-linking filter should be enabled by an administrator in Administration > Modules > Manage filters.
Each glossary entry should have the "This entry should be automatically linked" box checked.

Simply delete the glossary entry and add a new one.

In Administration > Modules > Manage filters, set filteruploadedfiles to "All files" or "HTML files only".

If you don't want particular text to be linked (in a Forum post, say) then:

In Edit mode, locate and click the Toggle HTML Source button on the formatting toolbar (appears as '<>' symbol)
Locate the piece of text you want to exempt from autolinking
Before and after the text respectively, add <nolink> and </nolink>.
Save and check.
