    Yes, it’s a feature and not a bug. It is clearly labeled as “Maximum Level” and “Maximum depth of the headings.”

    Over the weekend I will try to think about a nice solution in the backend to allow “only h3” or “only h3, h4” and so on. But normally this setting should not be needed because it is a “ToC” after all. If you skip “h2” in favor of “h3” there is a problem in the structure of your content.

    Ok
    sometimes there is heading h3 under h2, h4 under h3.

    There option of choosing only h3, h4, etc on one of the TOC plugins.

    Thanks for the help and support.

    In our special case I would say that it is fine and better for google if the H2 is shown additionally to the H3. Because for google the whole structure of the page is:

    H1: Main Headline
    H2: Headline
    H3: Sub-Headline
    H2: Headline
    H3: Sub-Headline
    H4: Sub-Sub Headline

    and so so. If you don’t have a H2 this is afaik wrong:

    H1: Main Headline

    H3: Sub-Headline

    H3: Sub-Headline
    H4: Sub-Sub Headline

    The TOC helps people and google to understand the structure of an article. Don’t make it harder for both of them.
