Re: how to block h1 from in-topic toc
The skin name is used in the class name of the list, in the format _Skins_<your skin name> .

Re: how to block h1 from in-topic toc
There's no similar method to exclude particular heading levels from a 'Headings' menu proxy. The only option is to set the heading level depth in the menu proxy, so you can't stop Flare including the h1.
But you can use CSS to hide menu levels in the output.
For example, this hides the h1 heading ...

Re: Can we put Targets in the Content Explorer?
From what I can see, you can copy a TOC but not move it, and you can't copy or move a target (and several other Project files). In a target, you can only select TOCs from the Project folder. So I think being able to copy the TOC into the Content folder is a bug.

I'd suggest reporting that as a bug, because although you can't insert a picture tag, it's a problem if Flare can't recognise all valid HTML when it comes to analysing links.

Re: TOC used in other TOCs
You can insert a TOC inside another.
Put the topics in two separate TOCs - User (only), Admin (only).
Create a new TOC for target A, then insert both the User and Admin TOCs inside target A's TOC.
Then Target B just uses the Admin TOC, and target C uses the User TOC.

No, you can add the video tag to the source.
I use video tags like the example code below, to include a track caption/subtitle file (because that's not supported by Flare).

Re: Is it possible to link to a web-based video that is not YouTube or Vimeo?
You can still just manually insert the video in the same way as you would on any web page.
So if you're hosting the video on your own site (like a mp4 file), then just use a <video> tag and point it to the video URL.
