Customization
The PHP script will add two new options to the user preferences. They were added to the Misc section:
- Floated table of contents
- Expand table of contents
Defaults are collapsed but not floated tocs. You can overwrite the default values by setting true in your LocalSettings.php file:
$wgDefaultUserOptions['toc-floated'] = false;
$wgDefaultUserOptions['toc-expand'] = false;
Prevention of TOC floating
The author has the opportunity to prevent floating of the TOC set by the user(s) by using a div tag with the style class noFloat enclosing the TOC.
<div class="noFloat">__TOC__</div>
Known problems
There are the well-known problems of floated boxes like:
- Missing list bullets
- Design problems of narrow TOCs and positioning problems with text and wide right-floated boxes.
Additional:
- Bidi support (right-to-left writing direction) implemented but not yet tested (for instance needed for Hebrew and Arabic).
- Support of only the MonoBook and Vector skins.
