I was given a Latex project as template and I decided to add a glossary on it, however, \printglossary is not working. I can add and use different entries so I guess that the glossary creation is not the problem.
I am using Overleaf and if I try a completely new project with only the glossary (code bellow) \printglossary works fine.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[acronym, toc]{glossaries}
\makeglossaries
\input{Bibliocosas/glossary.tex}
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\section{First Section}
The \Gls{latex} typesetting markup language is specially suitable for documents that include \gls{maths}. \Glspl{formula} are rendered properly an easily once one gets used to the commands.
\clearpage
\section{Second Section}
\vspace{5mm}
Given a set of numbers, there are elementary methods to compute its \acrlong{gcd}, which is abbreviated \acrshort{gcd}. This process is similar to that used for the \acrfull{lcm}.
\clearpage
\printglossary
\clearpage
\printglossary[type=\acronymtype]
\end{document}
I am using chapters intead of sections in the given project, is that the the cause of the problem?
Using \makenoidxglossaries and \printnoidxglossaries seems to apparently solve the problem.
I thought that I had already tried them but I guess I was wrong. However, I still don't know why the previous code does not work in the given project.
