Block editor scrolls intermitttently with SimpleTOC enabled

Yes, the “jump” occurs when SimpleTOC reloads after the page is saved. I can’t promise a quick fix for this. One option could be to disable SimpleTOC’s automatic saving through a global setting, but this might not be the best for user experience.

Hmm… If, say, the current setting remains the default, and an option to disable automatic saving was a properly documented option on the settings screen, something like this:

… don’t you think it would be an okay user experience?

Of course, there needs to be a button or menu item to manually trigger the TOC update. This approach is used in similar solutions, like Getwid:

Unless, of course, it’s possible to distinguish between auto-saving (which triggers the ‘jump’) and manual saving in the block editor. Cause, if that is possible, an option to only update the TOC when I’m done editing and I hit the save/update button would be a fine compromise.

There’s also the compromise, to reduce the frequency of autosave. That is really a matter of preference, but I found that for me, a 10-minute interval is just fine. This can be set with this snippet:

if ( ! defined( 'AUTOSAVE_INTERVAL' ) ) {
    // Change 600 to the number of seconds you prefer (10 minutes in this example).
    define( 'AUTOSAVE_INTERVAL', 600 );
}

I’ll do some editing with that setting; experiencing if the “jump” still affects my workflow.

The longer autosave interval is adequate for me. Resolved.

Please update to 6.3.0 for two new options regarding this.

Well isn’t that a nice little treat. Thank you @marckdk!
