When exporting to EPUB (with a TOC inside the document/Book) I got a message like this "TOC Text anchor_idTOCAnchor - 2 ///////// missing (not found). I checked a lot about this problem and did all – nothing works!

There is no Hyperlinks visible in the document??, its empty.

Please help me. Its time consuming!!

My HTML ”Stories" is:

<idPkg:Story xmlns:idPkg="http://ns.adobe.com/AdobeInDesign/idml/1.0/packaging" DOMVersion="13.1">
<Story Self="u14f" AppliedTOCStyle="TOCStyle/Test Innehåll nytt" UserText="true" IsEndnoteStory="false" TrackChanges="false" StoryTitle="$ID/" AppliedNamedGrid="n">
<StoryPreference OpticalMarginAlignment="false" OpticalMarginSize="12" FrameType="TextFrameType" StoryOrientation="Horizontal" StoryDirection="LeftToRightDirection" />
<InCopyExportOption IncludeGraphicProxies="true" IncludeAllResources="false" />

Thanks Steve

I have studied a lot of this problem in this Forum. And of course I checked "Make text anchor in source paragraph". I have done new documents and also only tried to export just the document TOC.

I have the latest InDesign 2018 and OS 10.11.6. I tried also on another computer (same OS).

It is said in Forum that "Text Anchors" showing up in Hyperlinks, but its empty also in Bookmarks

What to do?

(I showed My HTML ”Stories" earlier. Is it anything there?

You're in it now. I moved your post to the InDesign EPUB forum.

From the InDesign main page, click on Overview (under the ID logo). On the Overview page, there's a link to it on the bottom right under RELATED COMMUNITIES.

If you have the latest version of InDesign, in the Layout > Table of Contents dialog, check "Make text anchor in source paragraph" in the Options at the bottom and see if that fixes it.
