Missing glossary entries in Rh 7 HTML project converted to v11

In a project I just upgraded to RH 11, I have only 1 glossary entry.  The v7 project had a large number of entries.  Any thoughts on if the conversion could have "lost" entries or if it's some other issue?  FWIW, the only entry in the new project happens to be what was the first entry in the old project.

Thanks for any thoughts.

One more piece of info on this problem...I copied the .GLO from the v7 project and pasted it into the v11 project overwriting the .GLO in the v11 that only has 1 glossary entry rather than the many in the v7 project.  But the new project still has a glossary with just 1 entry.

Hi Diane

Perhaps give the following a try. From the Project Manager pod, right-click the Glossary folder and choose "New Glossary".

Give the glossary a name, enable the option to copy, then click the ellipsis button.

Choose the copied GLO file, then click Open and finally OK.

Do the entries then show up? If so, nominate the new glossary file as the default by right-clicking the file in the Project Manager and choosing to set the new glossary as the default. You would also want to double check the SSL recipe to ensure it's pointing to the new glossary. I would think that by setting the new one as default, that would be sufficient. But you never know.

Let us know how you get on! Rick

Unfortunately I still only end up with a single glossary entry.  The fact that this one term was the first entry in the full glossary in the old version of the project puzzles me.  If there is a problem with the GLO file or with the process of updating it to the new version of RH, I would expect to see nothing, not just one.

Thank you so much for all the time you've given this.  I think I may just have to bite the bullet and re-enter it all (along with all the drop-down content as that still doesn't work either.  It is recognized in RH and labeled as dropdown but when you open the drop-down text editor, it's blank.)

The glossary and drop-down are the only things I've...so far.  What worries me is what else I don't know yet that might be wrong/missing/not working in this upgraded version of the project:-(
