Update documentation

OK I've spent hours trying to figure out how to get this module to work and I give up. I am using the following versions of core/modules:

Drupal 9.3.0
Facets 8.x-1.8
Search API 8.x-1.21
Search API Solr 4.2.4

I have a Solr search index setup for and I have a View with various exposed filters and Facets that is successfully searching my documents. So, the Solr search is working as expected. Now I am just wanting to add a Glossary Facet to my search page. I have read the docs over and over and I am just not seeing the same options available to me that are in the docs. What are the basic steps to set this up? When I try to add a new field to my search index, I do not see the option "Title Glossary" as an available field to add to my index. I do see a "Glossary processor" option in my processors for my index, but once enabled, it doesn't seem to do anything or give me any other options as far as a Glossary goes. I think I must be missing a critical step in the process here. I'm just trying to create a Glossary Facet. Will this maybe not work with the versions of modules I am using? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

THANKS!

    The current documentation file (in the _documentation directory) is also out of date and needs to be updated.

    What you need to do is:
    * Open the "Processors" settings page of the index you want to add the glossary to.
    * Enable the "Glossary processor" processor.
    * In the "Processor settings" section, open the "Glossary processor" tab and enable the field you want to use for the glossary.
    * Save the index.
    * Add a facet to the view or Search API Page that points to the "Glossary AZ" field that corresponds to the field above.
    * Set the facet to use "Glossary AZ" widget.
    * Work through all of the options that include "Glossary" in their name, enable the ones that you want.
    * Save the facet.
    * In the block layout settings, use the "Place block" option to open the block selection, and add the glossary facet you created above; adjust the block visibility settings as necessary.

    I was fumbling in the dark a bit, but this seems to work.
