Responsive HTML5 Help filter issue - Index and Glossary

Hi,

My team is working on multiple Robohelp projects (around 10) and generating Repsonsive HTML5 output for each project. We have a conditional build tag applied to each project such that we can use the filter to select each help.

Now, the filter works fine for Table of Contents but when it comes to Index and Glossary, it is not getting displayed in the Online Help even though they exist in RH in the individual helps.

Any thoughts? Please let me know if more information is needed.

Are you applying the tags only at TOC level? If you are, that will only filter the TOC. Tags need to be at topic or content level.

There was a long thread a few months back about merged help and filtering. I think the gist of it was that all projects need the same filters in the same order, even though some of the filters are not needed in all projects when standalone.

Tags are applied at the Topic-Level.

Sorry about that.

Password posted but removed by moderator.

If you extract the zip, it contains 4 folders:

In the above project, the filter is working fine. So, I am not sure why it is not working with my actual projects.

I created a video also to see the issue:

The link to the video is in fact a second link to the download and by posting the password here, you have made it available to everyone. I will remove the password after send this reply.

I await the video.
