My HTML5 TOC is scrambled in one target but not in the other

Post by charleybrown »

Hi!

I am working on a project (in Flare 10) with 2 HTML5 targets that are basically all the same except that one of the target has a few topics conditioned out (this is my production output) and the other has none of the topics conditioned out (that's the pre-production output).

Both target use the same skin and everything else is identical as well. They get published each to a different location on a Sharepoint site.

Now, what happens is that my production output comes with a scrambled TOC after publishing. This is what it looks like, tabs are clickable but nothing happens:
TOC_broken.JPG
And this is what it looks like in the working pre-prod output; the production output is supposed the be the same except for 2 of the TOC books which are conditioned out:
TOC_OK.JPG
I have verified that all the settings in the production target file are exactly the same as in the pre-prod target, I have checked the skin... Now I don't know what else to do.

Any ideas? Thanks!

I'd check to make sure that your ToC file isn't conditioned with one of the excluded conditions. More broadly, I'd make sure that none of the conditions that you are excluding are applied at the file or folder level where you're not expecting them to be. Keep in mind that if you apply a condition to a directory using Flare's Content Explorer, all sub-files are automatically treated as if they have that condition applied to.

Not sure if it's your problem or not, but that's where I'd start anyway.

Thanks for your help, dorcutt!

In the end, it turned out that it was an issue with the permissions on the Sharepoint where I publish the content. Each of the 2 outputs goes to a different Sharepoint site and I had to learn that my permissions on one of them were not sufficient so I could publish there but for some reason some of the files remained checked out and this must have caused the issue. After this was fixed, everything is now working fine.
