MadCap Software Forums

I am merging at runtime two projects for a WebHelp output. I'd like to add some links from topics in the parent project to the topics in the child project. In my testing I have been able to set up a a successful link from a parent project topic to an child project topic as a link to an external file ...

This suggestion got things working for me. I added div.MCBreadcrumbsBox_0 and a.MCDropDownHotSpot_0 to my stylesheet and then and then my custom font starting being used.

I'm starting to implement the use of some licensed web fonts in my project for WebHelp output, and so far I've been able to get them work well for all types of styles except for MadCap styles, specifically MadCap|dropDown Head and MadCap|breadcrumbsProxy.

Our help system is published as a WebHelp on our company website and we are encountering a problem when viewing it from within the hosted environment for our application (which at least a quarter of our users are on), which is on 2003 Terminal Server.

Bookmarks seemed to be the issue after all. There were some TOC bookmarks that came over in the Word import. When I deleted them the topics all opened at the top. Thanks for the help!

I'm opening the topics from the TOC or using the next or last topic buttons.

Hi all,

Is anyone password protecting your help system in some way when posted on your website? If so, how? I'm new to Flare, but in my research in the help materials and on the forums it looks like the only way to do it is through the server on which you place your help system files, not through ...
