Not enough customizability

Robert June 2, 2024

It basically works, but not enough customizability. This includes: Can’t customize the title enough. Better yet, disable the title so I can provide my one (if you leave the title blank it still takes up space). Can’t choose to not have any bullets (neither bullets nor numbering). A nice alternative would be to have styling instead of hierarchy; e.g., bold for H2 and non-bold for >H2. With bullets, can’t adjust indentation (horizontal space is limited when the ToC is in a sidebar) Can’t make the items not underlined.

Not updated to be compatible

dubaidogfish May 19, 2023

Looks good on the edit page but as many others have said in the past year it pulls in all the headers across entire page including footer links when published/previewed. As last update was over a year ago despite the requests for fixes it seems it won’t be kept compatible with future releases of Wordpress. Edit: as someone said in the support you can fix this by adding this into the include box on the right of the page editor: It would definitely be better if it only shown headers from the content div by default – I found I need to add “.wp-block-post-content” to the include section to make it not pick up the headers from footer. Other plugins don’t do this.

This is the gutenberg TOC you need

I tried four of the top rated ones, this one is the one that actually works and provides a Gutenberg block with nice defaults.

Simple and Excellent Plugin

Manjunathpmf January 11, 2023

The plugin is easy to set up and configure. It gets the job done without adding any bloat. Request/Suggestion: Please make the TOC link anchor text take up the values of the heading instead of the standard #ib-toc-anchor-# /post-1/#ib-toc-anchor-1 To /post-1/#This-is-heading This would be easy to link straight to a heading even if the order of the heading is changed.

A good plugin

Well made

Knut Sparhell January 17, 2022

This is excellent, works very well, easy to configure and style, both in a content colun or in a sidebar using the new WP 5.8 widget editor.
