Supplyist TOC Block
Supplyist TOC Block
Description
Add the Table of Contents Block anywhere in your Gutenberg editor. It scans H2–H6 headings in the post content and builds a nested, clickable table of contents. Links automatically work by adding IDs to headings.
No configuration needed. Works on single posts and pages (not archives or category listings).
- No theme editing required
You can activate the plugin on any site. - Compatible with Gutenberg / Classic Editor
It processes the final rendered HTML. - SEO-friendly
IDs are based on sanitize_title(), the same function WP uses for slugs. - Works with headings that already have IDs
It does not overwrite existing IDs.
Example:
– Structure Your Content – Write your post or page using semantic headings (H2, H3, etc.)—just like you normally would.
– Insert the Table of Contents Block – Add the “Table of Contents Block” anywhere in your editor (e.g., right after the introduction).
– Let It Work Automatically – The plugin scans your headings, builds a hierarchical, scroll-linked table of contents in real time, and updates dynamically as you edit.
