Hey @Yt.w, thanks for the report. I couldn’t reproduce the issue you mentioned. Do you still observe this behavior? If so, could you please provide more details on the steps to reproduce it?

From what I can see, refreshing the page to rebuild the HTML is expected behavior. While it might be possible to avoid this, it would require changes to how the component currently works.

Hello, I still observe this behavior, and it actually occurred immediately after I installed my current instance. I didn’t make any changes.

My other instance doesn’t have this issue, so it’s quite confusing for me.

From a UX perspective, I believe it’s better to avoid refreshing the page to keep the TOC active.

@Yt.w can you show me your browser console when you have this error please? Expand the error too.

I have this exact same error on one of the three sites I am hosting in a multi-site set up which leads me to believe one of the settings I have in that site is making this happen. I have not yet determined which setting but when I track it down I will circle back and update the post, I just wanted to add that I am also seeing this in the wild on the latest tests-passed release.

This is what is in my console and it is all things I am used to seeing for better or worse :slight_smile:
