highlight glossaries entries on page

Question

I want to highlight my glossaries entries with bold or italic formatting.

I have used the following command but then the whole document is very colorful what I didn't want to have it like this.

\usepackage[colorlinks=true,linkcolor=blue]{hyperref}

I define my definitions like this:

\newglossaryentry{fps}{
  name=Frame per second,
  description= {
  TEXT..... }
}

And I reference this entry in the content with \gls{fps}.

How can I highlight in this example the word Frame per Second in the text

(Converting my comment into an answer.)

You can redefine \glstextformat. For example:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage[hidelinks]{hyperref}
\usepackage{glossaries}

\makeglossaries

\newglossaryentry{fps}{
  name=Frame per second,
  description={TEXT.....}
}

\renewcommand{\glstextformat}[1]{\textbf{\em #1}}

\begin{document}

\gls{fps}

\printglossaries

\end{document}

This produces:

Or (as mentioned by @cfr) you can add colour:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage[hidelinks]{hyperref}
\usepackage{glossaries}

\makeglossaries

\newglossaryentry{fps}{
  name=Frame per second,
  description={TEXT.....}
}

\renewcommand{\glstextformat}[1]{\textbf{\color{blue}\em #1}}

\begin{document}

\gls{fps}

\printglossaries

\end{document}

This produces:
