 * When the PHP on our server was upgraded to 7.3, the glossary plugin stopped working
   and would break any page that it was being loaded on. You can see the issue here:

 * Hi,
    this is not an error of the upgrade but a package that is missing in your
   host. It is usually php-mbstring, we need to add an alert about it. If you enable
   this module mbstring or install this package the error is gone and the plugin
   can use a better language detection.

 * I added php-mbstring and re-enabled the plugin, but it still brings the same 
   issue. Is there another package that needs to be added?

 * You need to enable this module inside your php configuration.In cpanel or plesk
   usually there is a page with a checklist wher you can enable the various libreries/
   modules.
 * Before the version changing you probably had this already configured but with
   the switch you need to do it again.

 * It is litespeed so I don’t know how works, if require other changes to enable
   it.
    Maybe is something that you can ask to your hosting provider.

 * Thanks for the quick support on this, it ended up resolving the issue. It just
   took some time to propagate on the server. Cheers!
