Hi,

 

Which one should I choose (EPUB 2.0.1 or EPUB 3.0)?

Never use EPUB 2.xx. It's a legacy format for use only when an existing document library needs to be matched.

    In EPUB 3.0, the Table of Contents doesn't appear.

    Is the TOC at the end of the exported document? (Probably.)

     

    You have to anchor the TOC frame to the main text flow for it to show up in place and not be considered a  'second flow' and pushed to the end of the document. Drag the anchor point (blue square at upper right on the frame) to the end of the immediately prior paragraph that you want it to follow.

     

    And keep in mind that ebooks typically don't need a visual/in-text TOC if the dynamic (reader) TOC is set up correctly. Use the features of EPUB etc. to create an advanced publication, not just replicate print.
