Topic: Template - Yellow empty box

Is this yellow empty box:
a known issue with the new template? I think it happens when you don't have any subheadings on the page...

I've seen that in the past (in either the LIVD or SNOMED IG, I think?) - so I'm pretty sure it isn't new. I didn't figure out a way to get rid of it so just ended up ignoring it. I can check and see if it's still showing up.
Sarah Gaunt (Jan 17 2020 at 01:32):
I just noticed it shows up in @Lloyd McKenzie's sample IG, so I'm ignoring it too!
Lloyd McKenzie (Jan 17 2020 at 02:37):
Known issue. Not currently high on the priority list. If following good practice, you want fewer longer pages, meaning most pages should have headings. I can make it disappear for XHTML, but not markdown - and I don't want authors inserting codes to manually turn the page ToC on and off.
Sarah Gaunt (Jan 17 2020 at 02:39):
Not following - you say best practice is for fewer longer pages which means more short pages? Or am I getting that backwards. Wouln't that mean you'd have fewer sub-headings if the pages are shorter?
Lloyd McKenzie (Jan 17 2020 at 15:50):
Best practice is fewer pages (which generally means longer pages, which means headings). You don't want readers to have to go through 5 clicks to find what they need - or to continuously click as they're trying to understand the spec.
