Hi,
I want a table of contents to be displayed. My main page has more than seven pieces of headline text, but my table of contents is not being created. A past suggestion was to force it by using __FORCETOC__, or in a position other than just before the first heading by using __TOC__. Unfortunately I don't understand what this means because I am just an eager novice?!?
What piece of code should I be editing with these lines?
Thanks in advance, Alison

The Main Page is a special exception in the code to this rule. I'm not sure whether or not the __FORCETOC__ and __TOC__ keywords override this exception or not; if not, you'll have to hack the PHP code :(

Just plonk them in the middle of the article you want the TOC to appear in. __FORCETOC__ will have the same effect wherever it is, so a good choice might be right at the beginning of the text, so that other editors will know it's there. __TOC__ should be inserted wherever in the text you want the TOC to be.
