Request for TOC to display only main headers in Home page+discussion

We refactored inclusions recently, and got this new behavior as a result. In some cases it's a good thing, but obviously not always. We plan to restore and perhaps even improve on how tables of contents work when we refactor table of contents.

Meanwhile, one possible solution is to make all of the headers in the included cards h2 (fortunately, it looks like you only have one h2 there already, which you could just make bold or something). Then you could use this CSS to make h2 tags not show up on the including card:

.SELF-home ol ol { display: none; }

(I'm assuming the including card is "Home". If not, replace "home" with whatever the key is of the including card.)

For your second question, there's no way that I know of to use numbers instead of Roman Numerals. I'll put a note about that on the refactoring ticket.

#2 is actually easy - this is done with CSS. The relevant bit in the current css is here:

.table-of-contents ol {
  list-style-type: upper-roman; 
}
.table-of-contents ol ol {
  list-style-type: upper-alpha;
}

But you can easily override that in your *css card.

As for #1, everything John said is correct. The table of contents processing now happens after the inclusion processing, so it's not possible to discriminate among inclusions.

His solution is a viable one. You could also add h3's into the mix and style them to look like h2s by tweaking this line in your *tinyMCE card:

theme_advanced_blockformats : "p,h1,h2,pre",

The ToC will only process h1 and h2s.

As John mentioned, we're hoping to refactor all of this soon and give more nuanced control.
