The TOC is a nested list of links to all heading found in the post or page. To use it, simply add a block and search for „SimpleTOC” or just „TOC”. The maximum depth of the toc can be configured in in the blocks’ sidebar among many other options. There can hide the headline „Table of Contents” and add your own by using a normal heading block. [Spin up](https://demo.tastewp.com/simpletoc) a new WordPress instance with the SimpleTOC plugin already installed. #### User Feedback > „It is lightweight, stable, and fully compatible with WordPress Full Site Editing. > A reliable solution that integrates seamlessly and performs exactly as expected.” > — > [@js100 on wordpress.org](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/good-job-1889/) > „Does the job perfectly, and adds no bloat.” > — [@clicknathan on wordpress.org](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/does-the-job-perfectly-and-adds-no-bloat/) > „Simple yet powerful. Great plugin that does exactly what you need.” > — [@mixey on wordpress.org](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-yet-powerful-106/) #### Accessibility This plugin is designed & developed for WCAG 2.2 level AA conformance. The plugin is tested with assistive technology and intended to be accessible, however some third party plugins or themes may affect the individual accessibility on a given website. If you find an accessibility issue, please [let us know](https://github.com/mtoensing/simpletoc/issues) and we’ll try to address it promptly. Hidden TOCs use native `
` and `< summary>` semantics without extra ARIA references that require custom IDs. #### Features * Designed for Gutenberg. * Zero configuration: Add the SimpleTOC block to your post and that’s it. * Minimal and valid HTML output. * Utilizes the browser’s built-in details tag for a collapsible interface. * No JavaScript or CSS by default.

Thanks to Quintus Valerius Soranus for inventing the Table of Contents around 100 BC. ## Capturi ecran * [[ * SimpleTOC block in Gutenberg editor. * [[ * SimpleTOC in the post. * [[ * Simple but powerful. Customize each TOC as you like. * [[ * Control the maximum depth of the headings. * [[ * SimpleTOC styled with Gutenbergs native group styles. * [[ * SimpleTOC Advanced Features * [[ * Gutenberg Heading block: Set a custom anchor * [[ * SimpleTOC hidden in the accordion menu. * [[ * SimpleTOC global settings. ## Blocuri Acest modul oferă 1 bloc. * SimpleTOC Adds a Table of Contents. ## Instalare SimpleTOC can be found and installed via the Plugin menu within WordPress administration( Plugins -> Add New). Alternatively, it can be downloaded from WordPress.org and installed manually… In Gutenberg, add a block and search for „SimpleTOC” or just „TOC”. Please save your content before you use the block. ## Întrebări frecvente ### Configuring Global Settings in SimpleTOC SimpleTOC allows you to configure global settings for your WordPress website. These settings can be enforced globally, overriding any block-level configurations that may exist. To access these settings, navigate to the SimpleTOC section of the WordPress Settings. ### How do I add a background color to SimpleTOC using Gutenberg groups? Select the block and select „group” in the context menu. Apply „background color”,„ link color” and „text color” to this group. SimpleTOC will inherit these styles. You would like to use this styled SimpleTOC group next time you write a post? Convert it to a reusable block. ### How to exclude a single heading from the TOC? If you really want to hide a single heading from the table of contents, then add the CSS class „simpletoc-hidden” to a heading block. You can find this field in the same place as the HTML anchor field: In the Block > Advanced sidebar. But first, think about the reason you would like to hide a specific heading. Maybe you would like to remove all headings of a specific depth level. Then there is an option for that in the blocks options in Gutenberg. If you think this heading should not be part of the toc perhaps it is not needed in the post itself? ### I would like to save my SimpleTOC settings as default. Is that possible? You can convert your configured SimpleTOC block into a reusable block in Gutenberg. It will keep its settings. This way, you can use your desired settings for each new post by adding the reusable block. ### How to add a div tag wrapper to the TOC? If you add a custom class to the SimpleTOC block in „Advanced” and then „Additional CSS Class(es)” a div with that class will be wrapped around the HTML output. ### How to allow developers to exclude specific headings programmatically? Use the ‘simpletoc_excluded_blocks’ filter. For example, this code will exclude heading blocks that are inside a column block. Example: ``` add_filter( 'simpletoc_excluded_blocks', function ( array $blocks ) { $blocks[] = 'core/column'; return $blocks; } ); ``` ### How do I change the color of the accordion menu? The heavy plus character I used can not be colored with css without hacks. But you can change the icon to something else and change the color of the new icon. ``` .simpletoc-collapsible::after { content: "✖"; color: #e94c89; } ``` ### How do I add SimpleTOC to all articles automatically? I don’t see an easy solution at the moment. SimpleTOC is only a block that can be placed in your post. If there was a plugin that adds blocks to every post, then this would be the solution. I think this should be another separate plug-in to keep the code of SimpleTOC clean and … well, simple. ## Recenzii ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/0305ccdaadb7ee42a8adbe1c18ce4d6a27ee05bb03258dc559496b7e7645e266? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Does what it says on the tin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/does-what-it-says-on-the-tin-632/)󠁿 [3tianne](https://profiles.wordpress.org/3tianne/) 7 ianuarie 2026 1 răspuns Does the job with no fuss. I feel that the option to include a basic show/hide button( no animations or other bloat necessary) would add a great deal of polish for very little impact. But, the plugin advertises itself as something that is minimalist, no CSS, no JS, and that is what it is. The links also follow the CSS rules from the site theme which is strangely not the case for other TOC plugins. Well done this dev. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/bef42f4e492576aaa7a439420ff1c232a1e2afe0d7793809dee10d727fb9abb2? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[This one will stay in my sites](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/this-one-will-stay-in-my-sites/)󠁿 [Zetona](https://profiles.wordpress.org/zetona/) 26 decembrie 2025 Thank you Marc, your plugin just works as expected! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/1c19492d5ef0dd503e56f6f1b31d11c32c5b4e8df38a6cc26800d6cdd33be90c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Good job!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/good-job-1889/)󠁿 [js100](https://profiles.wordpress.org/js100/) 29 noiembrie 2025 1 răspuns The plugin works exceptionally well.

It has less options, but just enough to do what you need. It adds nothing to the frontend to cause bloat. No CSS, no JS. At least not right out of the box. Additional settings can be enabled that will add these, but it’s nice that we have the option! This is an example of what a well- written plugin should be. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d2021a1a3720e51d9d66e833fc00464c5c86b1b6a0abfbf71a66353194653d14? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Klein und Fein](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/klein-und-fein-5/)󠁿 [Burgeule](https://profiles.wordpress.org/burgeule/) 11 ianuarie 2025 Ich hatte den Button erst gar nicht gefunden / übersehen unter „Blöcke” -> „Design”- > „SimpleTOC”.Klein und fein, wirklich zu empfehlen… ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/58a965bf457978ccc1ccc7bfb72e6381b2e17948b56b83d020c62fe68772ea25? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great plugin that works really well](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-that-works-really-well/)󠁿 [Mark Wilkinson](https://profiles.wordpress.org/wpmarkuk/) 5 noiembrie 2024 This is an excellent plugin that easily adds table of contents in your posts / pages and it provides links to the relevant headings.
