Using the word expansion feature is something we heavily use for many acronyms in our community. However in Invision Community 5 there is no styling of the <abbr> element that is generated for the word expansions. As the styling is missing, users don't even see that you can have a hover on desktop explaining what the abbreviation is. So that I consider a bug as the styling is missing. in v4 there was styling applied to the abbr element.
Second, for mobile users you can't hover on an <abbr> element so for our mobile users they don't get to see what the word expansion is. a solution to make not work for mobile users can be found on this url: https://bitsofco.de/making-abbr-work-for-touchscreen-keyboard-mouse/
Conclusion: make sure word expansions are visible in the topics so desktop users can hover to know what the abbreviation stands for. Second make it also work for mobile users.
