Hello! I just got involved with ebooks and Sigil. I've spent most of the day figuring it out, but now I'm stumped when it comes to the TOC. At first, I had a TOC that worked fine. I was fixing a mislabeled epub of Stephen King's Four Past Midnight. The TOC linked to every single chapter in all four stories and I just wanted it to link to the first page of each of the 4 stories, so I changed it, sent it to Calibre, converted to MOBI and put it on my Kindle. It worked fine.

Then I realizes I needed some chapter breaks. So I went back and added those. And that's when the TOC stopped working completely. Now when I add the epub into Calibre, no TOC appears at all, even though I have the proper chapters labeled with headings and all the boxes checked in the TOC editor in Sigil. Nothing I do makes the TOC appear in Calibre. I even went back and removed the chapter breaks to see if the TOC would come back and it didn't. I have no idea what's wrong. Any ideas?
