Hi,
I set the following parameters:
<parameter name="webhelp.show.navigation.links" value="yes"/>
<parameter name="webhelp.default.collection.type.sequence" value="yes"/>

But the navigation arrows still aren't showing in the webhelp output. Are there other factors that affect the navigation links?

Thanks,
Amy

Hi Amy,

What specific product are you using (are you using Oxygen XML WebHelp plugin, or Editor/Author and run the WebHelp transformation from the GUI product) and which specific version?
Also, could you let us know exactly how / where did you try to set the parameters?

There is a dedicated topic in our User-Guide, that provides guidance on how to show or hide the navigation links in the resulted WebHelp documentation, so you could take a look at it.

Of course, for the navigation links to appear in a specific topic, that specific topic should also have previous / next topics in your DITA Map files hierarchy.

Hi Costin,
I'm using the Oxygen XML WebHelp plugin v24.1 (with Oxygen XML Editor v24.1) and DITA-OT-3.7 to genereate webhelp output.
I created a custom publishing template, and all of the other parameters I set in it work.
I use a 'master' ditamap to publish content, which contains references to our 'main' ditamaps using the <mapref> element. The 'main' ditamaps also contain references to other ditamaps. I wonder if the layers of ditamaps are causing the navigation link issue.

I tried to mimic the layout of the publication TOC for a 'master' ditamap below. It would be nice to use the arrows to at least navigate from topic to topic in a chapter. And in this example, even topic 1.1.1>subtopic 1.1.1.1>subtopic 1.1.1.2>topic 1.1.2>topic 1.1.3
