CNX Table of Content

Create a table of contents for a folder in a document library, ideal for a wiki-style experience.

Overview

CNX Table of Content creates a table of contents for a folder in a document library. Point it at a folder and it presents what's inside as an organized list that's easy to browse.

It's ideal for wiki-style sites, knowledge bases and documentation, where readers need to see how content is organized and move between related pages.

Features

  • Folder-based navigation. Build a table of contents from the contents of a library folder.
  • Wiki-style experience. Give knowledge bases and documentation sites clear, structured navigation.
  • Easy to maintain. Organize content in folders and let the table of contents follow.

Configuration

Configure CNX Table of Content in the property pane: with the page in edit mode, select the web part, then select Edit web part (the pencil icon).

CNX Table of Content settings
SettingWhat it controls
LibraryThe document library to use.
FolderThe folder whose contents make up the table of contents.

Usage

Once the package is deployed to your tenant, add CNX Table of Content to a modern SharePoint page:

  1. Open the page and select Edit.

  2. Hover where you want the web part to appear and select the + (Add a new web part) button.

  3. Search for CNX Table of Content and select it.

  4. Open the property pane and choose the library and folder to use.

  5. Select Republish to share your changes.

Examples

  • Team wiki

    Organize how-to articles in folders and give each section its own table of contents.

  • Policy library

    Help employees browse policies by category.

Best practices

  • Plan your folder structure before you build the table of contents.
  • Use clear, consistent folder and file names; they're what readers see.
  • Combine it with CNX On this page to navigate both across pages and within a page.
