Hi! Im using RH 2022.5.28
I have added bookmarks from my topics to the TOC. Seems pretty basic but after generating, all items that are bookmarks give a 404 error - file not found

There are no spaces in the link name, but I  have updates the text of the TOC link. is that why they arent working? TIA.

    " but I  have updates the text of the TOC link."
    - what does this mean? What did you do?

    It should have read, I have updated*
    I added the bookmark links to the TOC. Then once in the TOC, I edited the link's properties for a shortened name.

    A shorter display name in the TOC? That shouldn't have any effect - is the link URL still the same (and valid?) You verified that the target topic file actually exists on the SP site?

    Are you Publishing to the SP site? Maybe you need to try Generating SP output locally & then clean out the folders on SP and transfer the output manually.

    This did not work unfortunately. But thank you for the reply.

    I assume you have generated a Sharepoint output. There aren't many Sharepoint users who help here so I suggest for this one you need to go to Adobe Support. See https://helpx.adobe.com/contact/enterprise-support.other.html#robohelp for your Adobe Support options. The email link tcssup@adobe.com is recommended as it reaches a team dedicated to Technical Communication Suite products including RoboHelp.

    Are you generating locally? Is the sample project working fine?
