  hi
  i have a long post to type, with a lot of paragraphes titled each by a <h1>.

  i would like to know if it is possible to get automatically at the beginning of the post a list of all the <h1> of my post, i.e. a table of contents of my post

  i read what i could about shortcodes but did not find it

  Hello Vincent!

  The easiest way to accomplish this would likely be via a plugin, such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-table-of-contents/ or https://wordpress.org/plugins/table-of-contents-plus/.

  Hi @elodouwen,

  Yes the links @agent5959 shared are for self hosted sites using WordPress.ORG.

  And I’m afraid it is not possible to auto-generate table of contents on WordPress.COM.

  But that would be a cool feature to have. Maybe you can put this in the ideas forum.
