in this video I've never shown you how
to add a table of contents to your
wordpress posts and your wordpress pages
as well if you like we're gonna be using
a free plugin to help us do this and
yeah it has a really great type of
got lots of options around it you can
change the look and feel of it
you can have it closed or you can have
it open or you can allow your visitors
to open and close it and yeah it's a
really nice looking table of contents
now you might be thinking why on earth
do I need a table of contents on my
posts and my pages well there's a couple
of good reasons to do this
the first is that it helps your visitors
navigate your content more easily
especially if you've got some of those
really long articles on your website and
as we would have jumped to the section
they're looking for really quickly take
a reason and maybe the most important
reason is that it can be good for search
engines it helps Google and other search
engines kind of navigate and crawl and
index your content more easily gives
them a good idea of the structure and
sometimes those table of contents links
can appear in the search results they
might be thinking but I've got like a
hundred posts on my WordPress website
it's gonna take ages well fear not this
plugin allows you to easily auto insert
the table of contents into your posts so
you can mass update loads of posts
really easily and really quickly so I
think that's enough chitchat
from me let's go on the computer let's
get this set up
[Music]
so I'm over at best roof box comm which
is one of my affiliate marketing
websites which by the way you can keep
up to date with just by following along
with the playlist that I've created it's
full of videos to do with the earnings
of this website of the traffic and all
the work that I've done on it I'll put a
link to that playlist up now and a card
and you'll also find a link in the
description so I'm already logged in
what we're gonna do is install the
plugin so let's go into the dashboard
and let's
plugins add new
they're up to this search box up in the
top right on in there and type in easy
table of content this one odds let's
click install now
let's install let's click activate now
as I mentioned the great thing about
this plug-in is that it can auto insert
the table of contents into your post so
you need to go through every single post
and add it manually and which is great
and that's what we're gonna be doing
right now so let's go into the settings
I can get in this way or alternatively I
believe it's in settings and table of
contents so either way works
let's click settings here
so we've got a few options we need to go
through first is where we want to enable
table contents
so by default the pages is ticked I'm
gonna um tick that I'm gonna go for
posts I only want it on my blog posts so
your posts is fine here's the auto
insert option
and of course if you don't want to auto
insert it don't take anything here but I
do own it insert it into all of the
posts next option is the position for
first heading is generally fine because
a lot of posts you get the you know
intro text so then it goes into the the
bulk of it and that generally starts
with a heading of course you can come
back and adjust if it's not right but
I'm going to leave it at or leave it as
even it has before first heading
so this option here is show when there
is four or more headings present you can
increase or decrease this probably about
right for our thought because you know
any less then you know do you really
need a table of contents so yeah force
fire I'm gonna leave that as it is
display the header label so that's just
like the table of contents header label
here that's fine you can actually change
if you want you might want contents or
page contents you know here's
suggestions you can go with whatever
contents is probably fine
toggle view allows people to open and
close it if you want them to then if you
use that you can initially hide it so
they have to click it to expand it and
they'll leave both those off there now
show us hierarchy I'm gonna see how that
looks and then I might come back and
change it and so it's going to basically
create a hierarchy I'll easy for me to
say a hierarchical hierarchical let's
not try and say that well let's just say
it's going to create a hierarchy using
the different header levels you and I
thought that I actually natively speak
English with you anyway there's the
count song I leave that as decimal
smooth scroll turn that on why not
and then we've got some width options
here now Otto's probably fine but I
actually like a full width table content
so I'm gonna go for a hundred percent
but it's off see up to you there were
some themes here I really like the light
blue but again you can you play around
with these see which one you like you
don't like any of them you can create
your own custom theme here by setting
background colors and title colors and
link colors and all that stuff
here's some advanced options which we're
not gonna need to mess with too much you
can exclude headings if you like if you
don't want them to be featured you can
short anchors are in a lower case not
quite sure why you'd need that or that's
for but let's leave it fact this lead or
leave all of this stuff I don't need to
mess with it Save Changes let's go see
how it's worked
so let's just put that same rage
and let's look at this one I think this
one's got lots of headers
so look here is our table of contents
the overview topic and then if we click
takes us straight down so it's created
the hierarchy as we can almost go back
up as we can see the lovely hierarchy
and yeah I think it looks really good
let me just quickly show you what it
looks like with a few different options
I'm gonna open another tab and we can
play around with it so back into
settings and temperate contents I just
want to show you the
toggle so let me just tick those two
buttons which is to turn on toggle and
then initially hide it and save
so yeah it looks like that it's closed
then you click on that and it pops open
nicely it's that's that
I think it's nice
have it untold but it's up to you maybe
you can leave me a comment on what you
prefer what your thoughts are terms of
SEO and I think it has much of an effect
whether it's told or not because Google
will still crawl it anyway quickly show
you a few the other themes
like the gray I make it a bit Wikipedia
rehang you know Wikipedia as a great
abundance
that's okay okay we'll go a gray because
I put this blue box here mi there's a
bit too much blue so yeah well let's go
with the gray one thing I do want to do
I noticed it
Marge at the bottom isn't quite right
you know there's a little bit more space
it so I think you could do with a little
bit more at the bottom so I didn't see
any options to do that with him saying
so let's just do a little bit of custom
CSS you'll find this code over on WP or
comm there'll be a direct link in the
description you can just copy and paste
it
um into your custom CSS so I'm just
going to create a CSS now let's just you
know margin you think 50 oh no no we
want margin bottom don't we course 50
that's too much isn't it too much let's
go for 30
mmm 40
nice too much thank you 30 was about
right so yeah just go to the wp you'll
copy this code like I am now and coming
to customize and close up additional CSS
and then just paste it at the bottom and
publish
so that's basically it easy way to add
your table of contents looks great
really good fresh Co let's have a quick
look at a couple of other posts see if
it's worked
there we go it looks great doesn't it
end yeah it's gonna be great for SEO
hopefully and all that stuff so yeah
