If you read the manual you will see how to rebuild the TOC after merging based on your current headings h1-h6 tags.
You need a basic understanding of xhtml and epub to use Sigil and a basic understanding of Sigil as well (again see our Users Guide about how to create or update a Table of contents toc.ncx file). Last edited by KevinH; 06-03-2023 at 11:06 AM. |

IIRC copying html from a Word document can cause the hyperlinks to become broken. HTML links that point to a non-existing file or ID on a file will cause an error. Here's a link to help you learn about HTML hyperlinks.
In the meantime, here is a simple way to fix this issue (do this in order): - Ignore Merging - Put new header tags <h1-h6> at the top of each html page. - [optional but recommended] rename your html files so they make sense. Highlight all the chapter files in the book browser, right-click and select 'rename' then put in a name that makes sense eg "Ch01". Sigil will automatically change the html files to a sequentially numbered list: Ch01, Ch02, Ch03 etc. - Click Ctrl-T (Tools/Table of Contents/Generate Table of Contents). Sigil will automatically make a ToC from all of those header tags <h1-h6> you put at the top of each file. - [optional] If you want an HTML file with your ToC then select 'Tools/Table of Contents/Create HTML from Table of Contents' This will create a new HTML file with all of your header links that will now work properly. - delete the original file with all the <h1> tags that didn't work |
