Can you convert the line 565 so that the title will be displayed exactly as entered into the taxonomy (eliminate ucwords function), please. Or, if you believe that it shall be in some cases different, maybe a new variable 'Title' would be the best. In any case, it looks weird in Slovene if the title is displayed with upper characters...
Besides, I would find great to have more control over the initial display (where all of the terms are displayed):
- an option to disable the taxonomy term display or the taxonomy term related node title display (in my case, they are both the same, and it looks weird...)
- an option to display the taxonomy term below the corresponding node title together with the translation of "Category:" (for cases, where they are mainly both the same, but sometimes different, or when also the display of taxonomy term is explicitely desired)
- an option to display all of the teasers just below the term / title (in my case, I have just a few terms, and it would be more useful and would look much better...), or to expand just the teasers when the title is clicked (and, to close the other previously displayed, or to let it opened as well) - in short, the whole page to look more like a page generated by a FAQ module
Am I asking too much? ;-)

nancydruIt never hurts to ask. However, Drupal's issue tracking is not good for multiple requests within a single issue. Each feature should be in its own issue.
Yes, I can change the title to not be transformed. You're right, I probably shouldn't be doing that. If the administrator wants it capitalized, she/he should do it in the taxonomy edit page.
The first two bullets: I must be dense today, I don't understand what you're asking for. There is already an option to not show the description. On the second are you asking for a taxonomy term link_alter function?
I think your third bullet is a duplicate of http://drupal.org/node/209515 with the idea of JS added.

nancydruFix committed to -dev version.

luti commentedSorry, it was my fault - my ideas were not formed well...
So, the present situation is the following:
If I don't select the option "Show glossary term descriptions on the Glossary page", a visitor must click the term first, after what the page with only a link is displayed, the third page is with a teaser and the 4th page is with the complete description. It is weird, as the visitor probably wanted to see the whole explanation immediately as he/she clicked the term, or?! I see the purpose of the teaser mainly to be used on pages where more of them are displayed together, to 1) briefly explain what is to be explained and 2) to help the visitor to decide to which content to go next... Otherwise, it is like you'd order the whole meal in the restaurant, but get only a part of it and have to ask the waitress to bring you the rest after... ;-)
So, I have the option above selected. This way, I have all terms displayed on the first page, but instead of an option to have the teasers displayed, there are only links to them (javascript shall be used if they have to be displayed and hidden dynamically on the page, but an administrator may decide also to simply have them all displayed all of the time - if there are only a few of them, as in my case...). This is a part of my wish, to be able to have all teasers displayed at the initial list of terms (javascript expand/shrink option for each teaser separately can be considered as an upgrade of that).
More weird looks in my case on next page, when a visitor continues to the display of a teaser. There are 2 rows with practically always (in my case) the same text displayed (vocabulary term and the content title). Here comes what I was asking for - to be able to decide weather to display only one of them (and, which one) or both. And, if both of them are displayed, also to be able to choose an option to display the description title (with bigger letters) above, and with additional administrator settable text (normally "Category:", but can be something else as well...) and corresponding taxonomy term below.
An example:
Now:
Drupal
Drupal
"A teaser - the Drupal explanation...."
My wish:
Drupal
Category: Drupal
"A teaser - the Drupal explanation...."
I hope I've described my ideas better this time... ;-)

nancydruOkay, it looks like this is now about teasers in the glossary list. That is the other issue I mentioned above. Let's move this discussion to that issue, please.
