Installation and Usage

How to Install

• First, place the plugin’s files into the /wp-content/plugins/ folder on your server.
• Next, go to the ‘Plugins’ section in your WordPress admin area and enable the plugin.
• When you’re working on a post or page, you’ll see a new option called ‘CM Table of Contents’. Here, you can choose to have the Table of Contents automatically find items on your post or page and display them at the bottom.
• If you prefer not to have the Table of Contents show up at the beginning of your content, there’s an option for that. Just uncheck the box, and you can then insert the Table of Contents wherever you like using the shortcode [cmtoc_table_of_contents].
• Lastly, the plugin settings give you control over the appearance and functionality of your Table of Contents. You can change the title, decide which tags, classes, and IDs it should look for when creating the list, and even adjust the font size for different heading levels to make sure it fits perfectly with your site’s design.

How to Use

• Seamlessly add a navigational table to your posts or pages for enhanced user guidance.
• Customize your table of contents with predefined tags and classes for a structured layout.
