Description

The message below was edited.

We are running into an issue of maketoc appending onto itself if more than one maketoc appear per page. for starters, our server is TikiWiki 3.2, Windows Server 2003, apache 2.2.13, mysql 5.1.39, php 5.3.0, Multiwiki setup.

We are seeing this in Multiprint. What I am seeing is that if I have Tikipage A with a {maketoc} at the VERY top and headings 1, 2, 3 and Tikipage B with a {maketoc} at the VERY top and headings 4, 5. When I Multiprint using the Pages selector (both Tikipage A and 😎 there will be 2 TOCs displayed in the resulting print page. The first TOC will show 1,2,3 and further down the page will be 1,2,3,4,5 (when I expected only 4,5). We are trying to Mulitprint hundreds of pages (and most have their own maketoc) so the very last TOC takes up 15 pages itself (after accumulating TOCS over 100s of wiki pages). Big problem for us as our nurses need to have a hardcopy/offline copy on hand in case our systems go down.



So it is the parsing of the maketoc that is causing the appending of subsequent TOCs. I found a bug by "larryg" where he tries to fix a similar issue (cf TOC and MAKETOC functionality when using Multiple Print and http://tikiwiki.org/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?topics_offset=1&forumId=2&comments_parentId=34791) but his fix did not work for me. I think that he is on the right track. Does anyone know of a fix? Has anyone experienced this? Is it fixed in 4.x?

Thanks in advance,

Tim
