Template:TOC Limit

Template documentation (for the above template, sometimes hidden or invisible)

This template inserts a Table of Contents which omits subheadings lower than a certain level. The table obeys the same layout rules as the __TOC__ magic word. Omitted sections still have section edit links in the article body; the main use for this template is situations where you want section edit links for ease of editing but don't want to clutter the table of contents.

Usage

{{TOC limit}}

The template defaults to including only == level 2 == and === level 3 === headers.

You can specify a different limit by adding a header level:

{{TOC limit|4}}

4 allows ==== level 4 headers ==== but omits any subheadings below that from the TOC.

The template works by hiding the lower levels with CSS. See MediaWiki:Common.css.

Conflicts

This template does not interact well with the {{tocright}}, {{TOC left}}, {{TOC center}} templates. To achieve the correct effect, use those with a limit parameter. For example, Template:Tlx has the effect that Template:Tlx and Template:Tlx would have—if they worked together.
