Will work on this later today (have to check if the subdirectories work as intended).

I like the idea of a global TOC. To make it a complete feature it should include all the headlines of the pages (and link to them).

[marcrleonard]

I did consider this (since there is already a mechanism to do get the page toc, which could be utilized), but didn't implement it for two reasons:

1. It could quickly become a pretty heavy weight operation (opening/parsing every file on disk)
2. It didn't seem to fit with the 'scope' of what the global TOC would provide. It's a high-level overview of the structure of the wiki (again, this would make more sense with sub directories).

Thoughts?

I’m on the road, so only a quick answer. 2. My understanding was that a toc should be more complete then just a page index. Both must be able to deal with subdirectories (at least optional). 1. I agree, this might be a more heavy disk operation. But for getting more than the Page Index out of it, it might be worth the price. (Or a user willing to pay in the waiting time.) In comparison, a search would take the exact same disk lifting. I would like to give this a shot, will do this later today.

Yes true! It is the same as search!

I finished the global toc, including the headers of the pages, please check the feature-global-toc if this is useful and works as intended.

PageIndex has the feature of displaying the headers:
