Disable anchor generated for h1

  • Hi,

    Sometimes I get the same h1 and h2. Though I don’t generate toc for h1, but it jumps to h1 by default as it’s the first anchor.

    Is there a filter to disable the plugin to auto-generate anchor for h1. Most of the time h1 anchor is useless.

    Thanks

    You can exclude the heading levels in the sidebar menu of Gutenberg. Does that help? Look at the screenshots of the plug-in here.

    Hi Marc,

    It’s turned off, I only show h2s in TOC. For your information, the min and max level are all “including h2″

    The problem is the heading #ID is automatically added to all heading with the plugin activated.

    My problem is :

    The content:

    h1 id=”i-love-a” I love a
    h2 id=”i-love-b” I love b
    h2 id=”i-love-c” I love c
    h2 id=”i-love-a” I love a

    The TOC:
    h2 id=”i-love-b” I love b
    h2 id=”i-love-c” I love c
    h2 id=”i-love-a” I love a

    If I click I love a, it jumps to the h1 instead of the h2 as h1 ID is auto-generated.
    I want to disable all IDs generated to h1.

    Thanks

    Okay, I understand. Currently, the only way is to set a custom id in gutenberg for that heading, since SimpleTOC does not check for duplicated ids. Maybe this will be addressed in the future.

    Set it here in the Gutenberg heading block: https://ibb.co/M6jRFJw

    Yes it can be a quick workaround.

    since SimpleTOC does not check for duplicated ids.
    I wonder how many people actually use h1 anchors, just adding a filter to disable h1 output is enough. Please consider this if possible.

    Anyways, thanks for your time looking into this!

    No, the filter would not be enough. The user can name two headlines the same and the resulting anchor id would be equal as well.
