Guide: Toggle Headers

This document provides instruction on when and how to use toggle headers.

Toggle Headers

Notes:

  • Toggle headers should be used when there is a lengthy course-list that makes navigating a page difficult.  

  • The toggle headers are ONLY available on toggle Header 3 and toggle Header 4.  

  • These will encapsulate everything between that header and the next header equal to or greater than the header you are toggling.  

    • If you use a Header 4 under a Header 3, it will collapse both headers.  

    • If you have a Header 2 after a Header 3, the toggle will only go up to Header 2.

    • If you have a Header 3 Toggle and then a regular Header 3, it will stop before the non-toggled header.

  • Toggling cannot be done inside of a course list.

  • Typing header text in all CAPS or copying and pasting header text to another similar page will cause the header text to appear in all CAPS in the [Link for document 69389 is unavailable at this time].

  • Toggle headers default closed when navigating to a page.


  1. Edit the page in which you’d like to use the toggle header.

  2. Highlight the header that you want to make into a toggle.
