It does work, because the output is all acf and not the_content. I don’t have the site on a public url at the moment so I can’t share it.
No I’m not using builder or composer. I am using acf fields within a page template and I was getting terms inside terms until I implemented the filter above.
Only way I was able to do it was to do the following, it would be nice if there was a setting to disable them.
add_filter('glossary_tooltip_html', 'se_disable_terms_in_glossary');
function se_disable_terms_in_glossary($excerpt) {
return do_shortcode('[glossary-ignore]' . $excerpt . '[/glossary-ignore]');
}
