Sections in TOC not Opening Sourced (Linked) Topic

Hello, I am using full RH2020 (v2020.0.156) and publishing Indigo Responsive HTML5 Layout to RoboHelp Server 10.

My question has to do with the Table of Contents. I tried manually creating TOC and auto generating TOC. Same problem occurs. I have Sections for example Administration and it is sourced to Administration Intro & Overview. I would expect that if a user selects the Adminisration section, then the sourced topic would display in left pane.  However, the links in the TOC only work if they are individual Topics and not Sections. See attached image.

I'm not sure but there may have been a bug in the version you are on that has been corrected in updates so try updating first.

 

You cannot update from the initial release (2020.0) using Help > Check for Updates. Go to https://www.adobe.com/support/robohelp/downloads.html and download the latest update. You only need to apply the latest as it includes the incremental changes. Once you have applied a later update, Help > Check for Updates will work in the future.

It's a horrible bug but it's a Catch 22 scenario. It's fixed in an update that you can't get to unless you know the dodge.

    Thank you for the heads up -- I wasn't aware when I checked for updates that it wouldn't update from the initial release.
    I followed the path for the updates and successfully installed and thank you again, because now my sections that are linked to source topics, work!  Happy Christmas!
