<p>Lexicon Entries consist of a “Term” and a “Definition” (if you are creating FAQs, this equates to a “Question” and an “Answer”), and can be managed in exactly the same way as standard WordPress posts.</p>
<p>The Lexicon Entries can also be organised into Categories.</p>
<p>The Lexicon Entries are displayed using a shortcode, allowing you to display all entries or those for certain categories.</p>
<p>The terms are indexed alphabetically, and initially only the terms are displayed – clicking on any term will expand the entry to show the definition.</p>
<h4>Using the shortcode</h4>
<p>The simplest usage would be to use the shortcode with no parameters:</p>
<pre><code>[lexicon]
</code></pre>
<p>This would show all Lexicon Entries in all Categories with the default styling.</p>
<p>To show the Lexicon Entries for a single category, you would specify the category slug using the <code>category</code> parameter:</p>
<pre><code>[lexicon category="general-entries"]
</code></pre>
<p>To show Lexicon Entries for a number of categories, simply supply a comma-separated list of category slugs:</p>
<pre><code>[lexicon category="general-entries,specialist-subjects,misc-entries"]
</code></pre>
<p>You can change the styling of the Lexicon Entries using the <code>before_heading</code>, <code>after_heading</code>, <code>before_title</code> and <code>after_title</code> parameters:</p>
<p>The <code>before_heading</code> and <code>after_heading</code> parameters specify the HTML used before and after the indexation heading. By default, <code>before_heading</code> is set to <code><h4></code> and <code>after_heading</code> is set to <code></h4></code>.</p>
<p>If you wanted to have these items displayed at a larger size you could use something like:</p>
<pre><code>[lexicon before_heading="<h1>" after_heading="</h1>"]
</code></pre>
<p>Similarly, the <code>before_title</code> and <code>after_title</code> parameters specify the HTML used before and after the actual Lexicon Term. By default, <code>before_title</code> is set to <code><h5></code> and <code>after_title</code> is set to <code></h5></code>.</p>
<p>If you wanted to have these items displayed at a larger size you could use something like:</p>
<pre><code>[lexicon before_title="<h1>" after_title="</h1>"]
</code></pre>
<p>The default instructions that are displayed above the entries by the plugin read: “Click on any term below to reveal the description.” … you can change these instructions by specifying the <code>instructions</code> parameter:</p>
<pre><code>[lexicon instructions="Click on any item below to reveal more ..."]
</code></pre>
<p>You can change how the instructions are displayed by specifying the <code>before_instructions</code> and <code>after_instructions</code> parameters. The default value for <code>before_instructions</code> is <code><h5></code>, and for <code>after_instructions</code> is <code></h5></code>.</p>
<p>For example, you could specify that the instructions are displayed in a <code><div></code> element as follows:</p>
<pre><code>[lexicon before_instructions="<div>" after_instructions="</div>"]
</code></pre>
<p>You can specify a <code>skin</code> parameter, which will apply some standard styling to the Lexicon entries. This parameter can take the following values: <code>simple</code> (the default value), <code>red</code>, <code>green</code>and <code>blue</code>.</p>
<p>For example, the following would display the Lexicon entries in blue <code>[lexicon skin="blue"</code>.</p>
<p>If you want to add your own styling to the Lexicon entries, you can specify the <code>class</code> parameter to add your own class to the Lexicon entries for styling with CSS. Specifying the <code>class</code> parameter will cause the <code>skin</code> parameter to be ignored.</p>
<p>For example, you could use:</p>
<pre><code>[lexicon class="myclass"]
</code></pre>
