- run the plug-in
— skip the first option (to delete headers)
— set the fields exactly as I have them in the picture for the second option
— click OK

EDIT:
Ahh, just saw that you didn’t have the plug-in installed properly. Follow KevinH’s instructions and all should be well.

thats the plug in i tried
ReworkChapterHeads_v022.zip
sourced from https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=301108
i followed these instructions exactly:
Installation
* Select Manage Plugins from the Plugins menu. In the dialog box, select either the Bundled Python or the External Python(Python 3.4+ should be installed on your computer to run this plugin externally).

* Click Add Plugin and select ReworkChapterHeads_vXXX.zip. This will load and install the plugin into Sigil, which you can then select and run using Plugins > Edit > ReworkChapterHeads


there is no mention of needing other installs, yet I suspect some python versions clash.
if i untick use bundled python 3.4 then it does not even try to work- just complains.

i select all books, run plug in- it does something ( a green progress bar briefly fills) then it stops with the failed message

according to the 2018 thread, it should initiate some dialogue as to what run-option I want, but that does not happen

its pointless anyway because according to same thread it can only cope with 100 chapters max

I would need a 200 chapter max for the Wilbur smiths books - all have 100+ chapters when done manually


with practice , it takes <2 mins to do a book the hard way.
I have already wasted enough time on that plug in to have done another 20 books, and I don't even have 20 unchapterised ones in my library.

its basically just this one author. ( if I have others I cant remember which ones and I am not going to open evey book in my library to check.

PS
"Ahh, just saw that you didn’t have the plug-in installed properly. Follow KevinH’s instructions and all should be well."
and how did you remotely diagnose that - curious.[ i found KevinH instructions in the other thread, but they only echo what i already did]
