I'm sure I must be missing a simple setting someplace... I have a lot of conditionalized text in my project as I have 2 targets - to cover 2 versions of our product... I've had no issue having the correct conditional text showing up in the right target... until now... so I have a reference to the ...

Thanks, Dave.... I sort of figured that was why that link was showing up.... i originally tried setting up the mc by putting the info directly in.. but that didn't work the way i needed it to... and also, doing it that way means i'd have to remember to make any updates in two places... and my memory ...

You guys are freaking BRIL! It worked! WHEW!

So... I created the micro content directly from the topic so that it's single-sourced.... then as you guys suggested, i went into the skin, found the micro content settings and set it to "none" for the link itself (since there's already a link to that ...

So... I've almost got it exactly the way I want it. BUT....

So... i wanted to try to single source each link so i don't have to update the links in 2 places. So, I created the micro content from the link and its description from within the topic where it already exists. The link that comes up looks ...

Thanks, Dave! I'm going to try this as soon as I get a chance... I was hoping this was going to be the answer rather than having to redirect... and THANK you for the tip about pasting in the link rather than "adding" the link! As soon as I find out if I'm doing this correctly, I will come back and ...

Sorry, Dave... i think I wasn't clear about what the functionality needs to be...

We don't need to search inside the PDF, i just need for the link to the pdf to show in the search results... right now, only the link for the topic in which the PDF links... so right now in the help, there's a topic ...

Thanks, Dave... not sure this is an option, but I will check it out...

i was wondering if setting each link up in a snippet with some description might help... there's that new thing now "micro content" i think it was called... might using that work rather than the IIS set up?

So, i have SEVERAL links to PDFs in my project.

The PDFs are in a folder in the Resources folder.

Access to the PDFs is from a list of links in a single topic.. so you go to that topic and look for the PDF... however, you have to go that page and manually search.

So just as a follow-up... the initial change (removing "src") did not cause an error.. but the script also didn't work... so he had me try the following:

<<script async="" src="https://

that may have been when you both meant for me to do.. and i didn't recognize the instruction.. but all is well ...

Thank you both SOOOO much... i have made the change you suggested, and voila...no error... just waiting now for our web guy to verify that it's working!

I know there are lots of posts about the inclusion of GAT in help systems.. I've read a number... but haven't found one mentioning this exact problem that applies to this specific code.

So the footer on each master page (we have 2) is created from a snippet. I went to the footer snippet and tried ...

I saw some other posts regarding being able to set the Default Window Size... but nothing since 2008... and one person stated that they put it in as a Feature request... so i'm wondering if this is now an option... it seems like the window is gigantic when i open it from our platform... Is it now ...

Actually, it was the topics themselves that had been conditionalized without me realizing it. However, i would think that this rule applies to any element... folders, images, topics, snippets, etc... i

sorry.. do i add that just to that style?

Thanks!

I am using a very light background behind a header/heading style. However, the background goes all the way across the window. Is there a way to limit the background to only be as long as the line of text?

that's what i thought, but i did do a search for that... and it's not there... yet it shows in the class list when creating a toggler... please see attached showing just "toggler" as well as Madcap:toggler...

I can find all other toggler classes... there are 3... but not the .toggler

Hi.. Thanks... i did post the class... at least it's the only one i can find in the css... but there's a log of junk posted in this thread so i can see how you weren't able to locate it! lol Re-posting it here.

Thanks as always for your help and patience.

DING DING DING! WE HAVE A WINNER... how did i miss that... that said... do you see anything in the settings for this class that i posted earlier that would cause this problem??

THANKS SO MUCH!

Give us an example of one that works and one that doesn't.

Hi... thanks for your ongoing input! i am attaching an image of the various bits of code as you requested... first the toggler settings from withing the stylesheet... then the html from the toggler that has all the orange junk on it, then ...

So... I just used the inspection tool to find differences between a toggler that is fine and a toggler that has the orange junk all over it... and there does seem to be a couple of anomalies in the one that's screwed up (see attached - anomalies outlined in red)... but i have NO idea how this ...

So, for now, I deleted the brand new toggler class that I created and used that was causing this orange mess... and recreated it... and it was fine.

HOWEVER, some really OLD togglers are now having this issue with a long standing toggler class... I'm going to look at that this morning and see if i ...

ok... it HAS to be something in the toggler class... that's when the problem started... and i just inserted some more togglers with that class and they have that orange redaction look... i am going to look at the toggler class and see if i can find out what went wrong.

Thanks!

Hi David... I had a very short "aha" moment on this as i did find an image noted in code using the inspection tool... HOWEVER... i then realized this same image is attached to every toggler (and there are tons of them) - including those that look fine.

The first thing I'd do there is look at one ...
