[Mediawiki-l] How to turn off numbering in table ofcontents liston pages with multiple headings

[Mike Broschinsky]

Matthew:

Thanks! I just commented that line, and the result is exactly what I
wanted. I suspected that hacking Parser.php would be necessary, but
hoped it wouldn't be.

I think maybe I'll make a feature request.

Thanks again!

Mike

Now I understand what you want.  There isn't any way to do it without
touching the code.  These are the relevant lines from Parser.php:

if( $doNumberHeadings || $doShowToc ) {
	$tocline = $numbering . ' ' . $tocline;
...
}

Since $doShowToc will be true, you'll always hit that middle line.
Also, the numbering is attached with the same style as the text, so
there's no way to hide it with CSS.  The smallest change you could
make
to the PHP-file to do this is to comment out the middle line above.

Sincerely,
Matthew Simoneau
