sigil_toc_id sequence

Mervin · 02-05-2023, 07:55 AM

Hi all, I am new to Sigil.
I want Sigil to have 'toc id' on the basis of the sequence in which I have my Table of Content. Is there a way to do it automatically or I have to do it manually ? I hope you understood my problem.

Yes, ids must be unique and need not be in any order. Simply use Create ToC tool in Sigil and it will renumber ids if not unique.

Sir, do you mean " Generate Table of Content" ?

Yes. That tool builds a completely new Table of Contents from the heading tags (h1 - h6) contents and it will insert and remove toc ids as needed. You should not need to manually adjust them. Save your current epub first to be safe or make a Checkpoint.
