Dear Supporters,

if i asked this question in the wrong support category, please feel free to gibe me a notice.

I am working with TWiki 4.0. I can not upgrade to a newer version as the IT dep. of the company refuses to do so... . As well I can not manipulate the tmpl, can not install additional plugins like GlobalSearchAndReplace and so on.. . Of course the IT dep. arguments with security issues if new plugins or new TWiki versions or additional TWiki rights for me would be used...so far I can not change the way IT admins think.

Now my situation:

I am using NumberedHeadings to number the headings. As a workaround for HeadingOffsets in includes I use a TWiki Variable - %TO% - with the NumberedHeading. In the include, I use a TWiki Variable %OS% to set the offset.

The heading then looks like this: <verbatim>

%TO% Heading 1

</verbatim>

The include then looks like this: <verbatim> Warning: Can't find topic Support.SomeTopic </verbatim>

I did some magic to identify if the topic is included or not and to:

• set the %TO% variable to empty if not included
• set the %TO% variable to the value of the %OS% variable if included

My problem:

I'd like to display the TOC of the topics in the WebLeftBar with skin=pattern. What I tried to do:

• %TO% Heading 1
