Hi all!
Please tell me how to create navigate within a post? link to specific headers?
so that you can refer to them like this - site.ru/post/post_1#headers
(I didn’t find it by searching)
Thank you
The discussion revolves around creating navigate links within a post, specifically linking to specific headers. Alex_Tramp asked how to achieve this, and pfaffman pointed out that it should work by default in recent Discourse versions.
Alex_Tramp clarified that they want to link to specific titles within a post. pfaffman provided a link to a meta discussion about automatic header anchor links, which solved the issue for Alex_Tramp.
However, Hilario reported that the feature didn’t work on their private forum, even after updating to the latest version. pfaffman suggested checking the markdown formatting, but Hilario confirmed they used the correct syntax.
The conversation shifted to the topic of getting navigation links to appear on the right side, with stance455 asking for help. JammyDodger provided the solution, pointing out that the navigation panel is the DiscoTOC - automatic table of contents theme component. stance455 appreciated the answer, realizing they had missed the theme component in their search.

You mean something like Configure an S3 compatible object storage provider for uploads? That should Just Work. Are you running a recent version? (What version is it? Did you do a standard install? Do you have any non-standard plugins?) There was a recent discussion here about someone who was getting those links and didn’t want them.
I have the latest up-to-date version without any third party plugins.
Perhaps I misinterpreted the problem.
There is a post on the forum, for example large
it is split into headings of different sizes (H1-H6)
How can I refer to a specific place inside the post, so that I can share the link with someone, and after the person follows it, he will not be at the beginning of the post, but at the desired title
If it’s a public forum, can you provide a link?
But see 2.7.0.beta6: Automatic Group Avatar Flair, Improved User Education Content, Bookmark Pinning, and more (that’s https://meta.discourse.org/t/2-7-0-beta6-automatic-group-avatar-flair-improved-user-education-content-bookmark-pinning-and-more/185908#automatic-header-anchor-links
Wow thanks!
“Automatic header anchor links”
this is what I need! I checked on my forum-now all the titles automatically become links, a few days ago I did not know how to do this)
Thank you!
Does it only work with PUBLIC forums?
Because I have update to the last version (2.7.0.beta6) and the behaviour till don’t appears.
I put the mouse over a header but no link appears.
Perhaps do I have to activate something?
There are private forums.
Did you create the heading with markdown like
## my heading
yes.
with #, ##, ###
Here is a post example

Did you ever figure this out @Hilario ?
Or does anyone else know how to get those navi links to show up on the right side?
I can’t get the anchor link navigation menu to appear on the right side. The header link functionality works but cant get the links to appear on the right - Is there a setting to enable?
Example topic from my site
The navigation panel is the DiscoTOC - automatic table of contents theme component. ![]()
Table of contents was a search that just missed me
Thank you
