Creating a header for the Table of Contents

  • Adding a header to the Table of Contents adds that to the TOC itself. Is there a way to give the TOC a header or is the solution just using bold text instead of a H2?

    There’s also the weird behaviour where using H3 as the heading makes the TOC disappear completely. Other TOC plugins I’ve used allow H3 for the TOC heading.

    Hi @jenxi I see what you mean, I would suggest adding the heading f using the Custom HTML block. You can use the following code <h2> Add heading here </h> This heading shouldn’t be included in the Custom HTML block.

    However, this can be requested as a feature of the block. It could be something similar to what you can use for the Table Block. I would suggest making an enhancement request below:

    Let me know if you need assistance.

    I think this depends on how the headings are structured, for example, if I add the first heading as h3 but the headings following that are in h2 this would affect how the headings are structured because they’re displayed in a hierachy.
