RH 8.02

Merged WebHelp

Has anyone figured a workaround for getting placeholders (breadcrumbs, mini-TOC) into the header section of a topic page, standard or master? (The placeholder options are dimmed when selecting header or footer.) Even if I try to sneak in the HTML, RH just blows it away or keeps it with no functionality.

Have they fixed this in RH9?

Hi Leon

What if you insert the placeholder just above the Body placeholder but not in the Header proper? That seems to work and behave the same as the Header.

Cheers... Rick

Not if I want it to serve as a master page, Rick.

We already have both placeholders in the body, but I was hoping to take them out of the body entirely. Our staff seems to randomly disable them, how I don't know (they insist they DIDN'T TOUCH A THING!

Sorry, but I'm not understanding your bit about you can't have it if you want it to serve as a Master Page. That's precisely where you would do it.

What am I missing?
