Adding a Table of Contents

Needs revision--and new name!

 

 

This page gives brief instructions for adding a Table of Contents to either Wikispaces or PBworks. The advantage is that once you use the ToC widget, new topics will be added automatically to the ToC as they are added to the page. This is very helpful if your participants are creating a list of projects, for example.

 


 

 

 

Adding a ToC to PBworks

 

In the >Edit Page mode, be sure the headings you want are designated in the >Format menu. Each title that will appear in the Table of Contents should be designated Heading 1 throught 3.

 

Place your cursor where you want the ToC to appear, and click on the >Insert Plugin icon:

 

 

From the set of buttons, choose >Table of Contents:

 

 

>Table of Contents is the next to last in the list. When you have selected the Table of Contents link, you will be shown a confirmation:

 

 

The "depth" box shows what level of Headings you have chosen. You can have only Headings designated 1 or 2, for example. Here all the headings have been designated up to level 3. The ToC will show them as indented.

 

Select the >Next button to finish up.

 

You will then be given a preview. The actual ToC will not show up until you >Save the page and exit the Edit mode.

 

 

 

 


 

 

Adding a ToC to Wikispaces

 

 

A Table of Contents (TOC) can be very handy on a long page because it will help your readers find what they want quickly.

 

You can open your wiki in a new window or browser tab and keep this page open as you follow the directions.

 

To create a Table of Contents on any page in Wikispaces, first click on the >Edit Page button. Be sure the headings you want are designated from the font/style selection pull-down menu as Heading 1...6, rather than as Normal text.

 

 

In the Edit menu, place your cursor where you want the TOC to go (usually at the top right of a page), and click on the widget icon:

 

 

A list of widgets will open up. Select >Wikispaces:

 

 

The first link will be >Table of Contents:

 

 

A short explanation will appear. Click on >Embed Table of Contents to complete the task.

 

 

Your new Table of Contents will show up as

 

until you >SAVE the page and exit the Editor.

 

 

Remember, all lines that designated as Headings will show up in your TOC. Headings that are larger numbers, e.g., Heading 3, will be indented under the smaller ones (e.g., Heading 1). You may have to adjust your designation to get the look you want in the TOC.
