Customize DITA topic template

Post by catherine »

Hi,
By default, when I create a DITA topic, for example, a task topic file, the oxygen renders some labels.
Such as:
"Before You Begin" before the prerequisites element.
"What to do Next" before the postrequisites element.

When I publish the webhelp, the labels don't display on the web page.

How can I display the default labels or customize the labels when I publish the webhelp?

Thanks a lot.

Regards,
Catherine

Hello,

There is a parameter that controls if the section headings from task topics are displayed or not in the output.
More specific, you should edit your WebHelp Responsive transformation scenario and look for the "args.gen.task.lbl" parameter in the Parameters tab oif the scenario configuration dialog.
By default, the headings are not shown in the output, so you should just set the parameter to "Yes" and apply the changes.

Best Regards,
