Greetings! We’ve added a table of contents module to the forums. Users may convert their post into a Table of Contents post using the little gear icon on the toolbar and selecting “Insert table of contents”:
image757×430 8.67 KBOnce a post has a table of contents inserted, the module will search for anything with a header tag of some sort (# Header
, for example) and turn that into a new section for your table of contents.
For example:
Header 1
- Contents 1
Header 2
- Contents 2
Header 3
- Contents 3
The formatting for the above is simply:
# Header 1
* Contents 1
# Header 2
* Contents 2
# Header 3
* Contents 3
You may also use additional header tags to create sub-chapters for your table of contents, like so:
Header 1 (Big)
- Blah blah blah
Header 2 (Smaller)
- blah blah blah
Header 2.2
- blah blah blah
Header 2.3
- blah blah blah
Header 3 (Smaller still)
- blah blah blah
Header 3
- blah blah blah
And the formatting for this, for example, is:
# Header 1 (Big)
* Blah blah blah
## Header 2 (Smaller)
* blah blah blah
### Header 3 (Smaller still)
*blah blah blah
You can see how this affects the table of contents column on the right-hand side of this post. You may navigate to each section by clicking on the section title from the column on the right.
For mobile users, you’ll see a little “Table of Contents” button at the bottom-right of your screen,
which when tapped will open up a window of all sections of the topic for hopefully easier navigation.
