<h3>⭐HIGHLIGHTS</h3>
<h3>🆕 GUTENBERG BLOCK</h3>
<p>Since v2, you can now use the block to insert a table of contents.<br />
The block lets you easily <strong>HIDE or EDIT</strong> specific headings.<br />
In addition, <strong>the block picks up on headings that would be generated by a third party shortcode or block</strong> but invisible in the actual editor.<br />
In the PRO version, you can override any setting for a specific block from the block settings panel.</p>
<h3>🚀 PERFORMANCE ORIENTED</h3>
<p>Joli Table of contents uses a combination of minified CSS and Javascript to run at maximum speed.<br />
It also does not depend on jQuery to improve performance.</p>
<h3>🧠 SUPERIOR HEADING PROCESSING</h3>
<p>Unlike its competitors, Joli Table of Content picks up on headings hidden behind third-party shortcodes and blocks. This means that it will show the headings that do not directly appear in the editor, but are still present in the front-end !</p>
<h3>🖌 THE MOST CUSTOMIZABLE TABLE OF CONTENTS PLUGIN</h3>
<p>Joli table of contents has been designed to really match your expectations.<br />
Every single part of the table of contents is highly customizable, and uses a CSS variable approach to make it even more customizable.<br />
You can adjust a large array of settings including:<br />
* Margin<br />
* Padding<br />
* Border radius<br />
* Border<br />
* Colors<br />
* Fonts<br />
* and more…</p>
<h3>🔽 ICON OR TEXT TOGGLE</h3>
<p>Choose between a <strong>Text toggle</strong> for a more classic look OR an <strong>Icon toggle</strong> for a more modern approach.</p>
<h3>📐 CUSTOM THEME READY</h3>
<p>Joli Table of contents now bundles a custom theme engine, that lets you <a href="https://wpjoli.com/docs/joli-table-of-contents/customizing/create-my-own-theme/" title="How to create your own theme for Joli Table of contents" rel="nofollow ugc">create your own theme</a>.<br />

<p>Auto-insert supports multiple additional rules:<br />
* Post type<br />
* Post title<br />
* Post ID</p>
<p>You can also EXCLUDE specific posts by Post title or Post ID</p>
<h3>🎛 DIFFERENT SETTINGS PER POST TYPE [PRO]</h3>
<p>Create different settings per post type for maximum flexibility.<br />
For example you can use Theme 1 for “post” post type, and use Theme 2 for the “page” post types.<br />
Good news is every single setting can be set differently per post type, not just themes !<br />
This also works with custom post types.</p>
