Overview

This WordPress plugin is designed to automatically generate context-specific indexes or tables of contents (TOC) for long pages and custom post types, enhancing navigation and readability. It provides not only TOC functionality but also allows users to output a sitemap listing pages and categories across their entire site. Tailored with content-rich sites in mind, such as content management systems, and advantageous for bloggers, the plugin ensures the TOC appears before the first heading by default, utilizing a unique numbering scheme compatible across themes. Users can easily customize TOC settings, including display position, heading inclusion, and appearance through an administration options panel. Advanced features include the ability to exclude certain heading levels, disable included CSS, adjust top offset, and utilize shortcodes for precise TOC placement or exclusion.

User sentiment analysis

Users generally appreciate the WordPress plugin's simplicity, ease of customization, and ability to seamlessly integrate into different themes. It is particularly effective for creating tables of contents (TOCs) for long posts and is praised for its practical features and minimalist design. However, the latest version (2302) has caused significant issues, including TOCs failing to display, settings being reset after updates, and incompatibility with certain cache plugins and multilingual sites. Users also noted a lack of timely support from developers, which exacerbated these problems. Despite these drawbacks, many users remain hopeful for future fixes due to their long-term positive experiences with the plugin.

I have experienced a really tough day trying to resolve the issue that the TOC failed to display. Fortunately, I managed to find a solution, which is really simple. I hope it can be helpful to those guys encountering the same issue. Solution: Go to the advanced settings and select the heading levels you want to show. All the heading levels are kept unselected after the update and you just need to select them again.
