I finally got all my projects updated to 2022.1 with all the output working and looking as expected.Today, I installed the Update 2. Now the ToCs for my PDFs have page numbers for the headings on the cover page and the ToC itself, where they didn't before.Update 1:Update 2: Is there a tried and true way to omit specific headings (or pages) from the ToC? The Cover page uses cover-specific classes on the H1 and H2. How can I set the ToC to exclude them (and the Contents page itself)?

Using RH 2022.0.346, we tested publishing to frameless and noticed that the URL address/path no longer has index.htm in it like responsive HTML5 does. I did check in the Frameless>Output>General the "Start Page" has index.htm and the Output>Framless>Content> has the "Include Index" checkbox checked. Is this the way frameless is? Can I get the index.htm back into the URL? Thank you all so much for any insight.

Good morning!I am here again!I would like to understand if there is a way in RH to insert different blocks of documents in a single project that can be viewed according to need. For example, inserting  a methodological manual in a user one in a single project but having the possibility of viewing the methodological manual (the entire manual) by clicking a link perhaps?

As hard as I try to figure this out via this forum, the internet at large, experimentation, or flat out guessing, I can't seem to nail down what files actually need to be saved in a source control system (eg GIT) and what doesn't.Can anyone point to an official and definitive source for this information?Many thanks.

Is there a way to have a feedback or rating per page in your Adobe Robohelp Output similar to this screen capture from another webpage? If so, how would you receive those results? Thanks!

Hi,we've discovered that file names (e.g. file names of images used in the RH project) are included as suggestions in the Responsive HTML5 output of our project: Is there a way to turn this off? Having file names as the first suggestions makes the search all but unusable. Especially since the suggestions also include thumbnail images that are generated by RoboHelp if a thumbnail class is applied to an image. Thank you for your help.Cheers, Birgit

Hi, my Search results in Responsive HTML5 output, using RoboHelp 2019 Classic and the Azure_Blue layout, includes all of the image files. Images are stored in a subfolder named images. I don't want these files to be included in the Search. Any ideas on how to exclude them would be appreciated. I would also like to change the default font size in the left pane if possible. Thanks,-Gina Colby

Using RH on windows 10 pc, version 2022.1.188. Tables are breaking across pages and client doesn't want this. How do I fix it in the PDF output generation? Thx

tldr; Robohelp 2020 and later does not work in a Jenkins agent. Robohelp 2019 classic does. What am I doing wrong? We use Jenkins to automate our software build and deployment process. Generating the user manuals (authored using Robohelp) is also part of this process. With Robohelp 2019 classic this works fine. The Jenkins agent invokes the Robohelp command line compiler similar to how a user would invoke the command line using a command shell or script and the manuals are generated. In Robohelp 2020 and later this no longer works as the process appears to be hanging indefinitely during start up.

Im am a long time user of RH (Classic), but currently upgrading to RH2022. I am not seeing the ability to easily select what content I want to output to PDF. In "Classic" version there is an option in the Output (second setting screen) configuration that allows for the selection of whatever you want to generate for the output (see screen capture below).The only way I figured to do this now is by messing with the TOC to incude only one topic and then selecting that in the output. I need to output pdfs of only single topics all the time, so I hope there is just something simple I am missing since I am new to the current UI?

We are pleased to share that Update 2 of RoboHelp (2022 Release) is now available. The update contains fixes for Sticky Right Panel and PDF publishing, including TOC, Metadata, and licensing for PDF generation. For details of all fixed issues, refer to the Fixed issues page.  To install Update 2, please follow the instructions mentioned under Install the update.  If you are updating from RH 2022.0, click Help > Check for Updates If you are updating from RH 2022.1, you must manually download and install Update 2 from Install the update. Thanks, RoboHelp Team

Hello,   How to add custom jave script file in RoboHelp 2022?   Kindly suggest.  

Hello, Please help me out to create profile connection for Git. I am getting error when add the private SSH key.  Thank you!

I'm customizing an Orange frameless skin. I am able to delete the Favorites button by deleting the "Saved" button in Layout >  Topic Page Buttons. But this doesn't remove the favorite button in the Right Panel. Can it be deleted? I think there was another post that said it can't be deleted but you could trade the icon for one the same color as the background. Is that the solution?

Hello! I am using Robohelp Version 2020.7.46 to generate a Frameless output and use it to implement context-sensitive help. Clicking the index.htm file in the Output folder loads the page correctly. However, on uploading the Output folder to SharePoint/S3 Browser, the index.htm page does not load. Additionally , when I click on one of the topics in the Outputs folder, only the content is displayed, but full TOC on left, In this topics section on right, Search button, and other elements (Header, Favorites) on the page are missing. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Sravana  

Not sure if this is just a setting I am missing.  Is it possible to completely disable the search term highlight feature?  I have several topics that provide blocks of code for users to copy/paste.  When accessing these pages from a search result, the code block format is modified by the highlight code which messes up the how the content is copied. This mainly affects blocks of code in a preformatted text <pre> tag that involves separate lines.  When copying from the page the highlight feature, it ignores the format and pastes it all as a single lineExample without the Highlight:   <pre>Hello there This is an example of some code </pre>   And this is the format when copying out of the output page without the search result highlight:   Hello there This is example of some code   But if you were copying this output from a search result, with the highlight used to highlight the terms in t

HiI am using Robohelp 2020 Update 5 for the project documentation. Just came across an uncanny issue. In the Outputs folder, clicked the Index.htm file and it did not load the page. Chrome is my default browser. This is Output settings page on RH2020. Another issue is, in the Outputs folder, I then clicked one of the topics. It did display the content but the TOC, right TOC and the Next and Previous buttons were missing. The Outputs folder in on the D:\drive. I copied the entire project to C:\ drive and checked but the issue still persists. Please can you let me know if I am missing any settings. I do not think we had such issues in RH2017. Moreover, if we opened a topic from the Outputs folder in RH2017 it displays only the content but had a messaging at the top right-side of the page as given below: Clicking the above option would then re-load the page with the TOC and also the Next and Previous buttons. I did not see such an option in RH2020 that will r

I'm looking to clean up my project on the back end folders/files.  There a ton of rtl files which I have come to understand are temp files and can be deleted.   I also have a ton of $pr files.  What are the $pr files? Any other tips on what to look for /research/delete to "clean up a project"

Hello,We have a pretty large Robohelp project that we've recently upgraded to Rh2020.This project in Rh2019 (.xpj), we had several files that we had "excluded from search". These files were not part of the TOC, nor were they linked from any of the normal "topic" files. We'd link to these files directly from the product UI. This was because we wanted these topics to be visible only to these special customers who have these very special features. This worked fine in Rh2019. When we generated the output in Rh2019, these files would make their way to the output folder automatically. These were not searchable, but were part of the output folder.However, in Rh2020 this doesn't seem to work. The output folder completely ignores these files. They do not make their way into the output folder.As part of our troubleshooting, we tried adding a link from one of the regular topic files to these hidden files, and then generated output. All the hidden files from this folder then made its way to the ou

After the upgrading my project from RH2019 14.0.14.002 (.xpj) to RH2020 2020.8.34 (.rhpj), the project file looked good (even though the UI was new). I did not have to fix anything in the project that I knew of. Then I generated the Microsoft HTML Help, using output settings/options that matched the selections in RH2019. There are 3 issues in the HTML output:Issue 1: A ‘Contents’ tab that is empty. This tab did not exist in the RH2019 HTML output.Issue 2: Extraneous text ‘Topic index’ appears on the top of each page. The cursor changes to a finger when the mouse is positioned over the text, but nothing is opened when it is clicked. This extra text did not exist in the RH2019 HTML output.Issue 3: All topics in the Index are showing an error implying no topics are associated with each index. I confirmed in the .rhpj project file that each index is indeed associated with a topic, no changes from the .xpj file.Did I miss some steps during the upgrade of the project? Was ther

Hi, We are trying to analyze our knowledge base using google analytics and we've noticed that sometimes Robohelp adds the tag ''rhsyns" to the URL of the website. We are trying to understand what it stands for and refers to, as we originally thought it was linked to pages opened via context-sensitivity and map IDs, but after some tests, this doesn't seem the case anymore. See the following example: https://whatsonknowledgebase.mediagenix.tv/2023r2/index.htm?rhcsh=1#t=Trailer%2FRatings%2FRatings_Workflow.htm&rhsearch=%22ratings%22&rhhlterm=%22ratings%22&rhsyns=%20  Could you please help us out? Thank you!

I am trying to upgrade a few RH2017 projects to RH2022. While a few got upgraded properly, I am facing some issues with a couple of projects. For one project, the upgrade fails, and the log file generated is empty, so I am not sure what the issue is.For another project, the upgrade fails, and when I see the log file, it shows that RH is trying to upgrade an entirely different project (I double-checked to see if I had selected the incorrect XPJ file, but that is not the case). Any help on where to look for to resolve these issues will be greatly appreciated.

Framemaker Version: 16.05.1096Robohelp Version: 2022.1.188I upgraded a Robohelp Classic Project that consists of linked Framemaker files.

Hello, I am using Robohelp 2022  Developer has made some changes in the css and now we want to change the default css and implement the changes made by the developer in the CSS. We also have a seperate font folder that we want to implement. Kindly help how to do the same.

1. Context-Sensitive Help will not work if we have broken links in Robohelp, which we do. Every time I compile it, it breaks another topic's name. Main Part Entry becomes "new topic", Part Price Entry becomes "new topic1", etc. This breaks our ability to link from the Old Help.  2. For every topic the above issue happens to, it destroys the image map. Image mapping might not be available if we can't get that fixed.  3. Every time I compile this file, the formatting is ruined as well. Spaces disappear and are added in random spots.  4. The font is no longer the font I chose when accessed from a computer that does not have poppins (the font) installed.
