Definition lists and toggling #Formatting
smmuller@...
A couple of the books I've harvested recently use definition lists for some of their terms. LibreTexts formats anything with the <dl> tag so it starts out collapsed, and toggles if you click it. It doesn't look right on some of the pages. For example, on this page: The sections for "targets:" and "repeated_nodes:" start out collapsed. You have to click them to get the description.
Usually collapsed definition lists are also blue like a link as a hint to click them, but the <code> format for these terms makes them gray, so it's kind of easy to miss.

I may have to reapply a different CSS on that page to avoid this. Keep a record of it and we can review later on.

Sounds good!

I just ran into this too. It would be great to have the option for the <dd> elements to show automatically or have that be the default.
I'm trying to use it in the practice exercise at the bottom of this page: https://human.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Composition/Advanced_Composition/Book%3A_How_Arguments_Work_-_A_Guide_to_Writing_and_Analyzing_Texts_in_College_(Mills)/09%3A_How_Arguments_Establish_Trust_and_Connection/9.05%3A_Respect_and_Goodwill Thanks, Anna

Whoa! I cannot believe the number of tools in LibreTexts. But this won't change the default for the page, will it? When I reload the definitions go away again. Maybe I should use something else since it's not really a definition list--I want a header for
the item but I don't want to skip header levels and I don't want it show up in the TOC.

This only affects your view as a developer.
We will likely swtich to a different technology and use a bot to change it on all books, but probably sometime this summer after the quarter/year is over and we can breathe a little bit.

Okay, sounds good. Going to go look up what "unorder page" does now that I'm looking at all the developer options.
Thanks,
Anna

That is if you break the alphabetical organization of the
chapters in your book (via the drag boxes). The unorder page
resets it (this is best for books so that CANVAS pulls in what you
see).

rearrange the chapters on your book via dragging the boxes and then click the "unorder page" button and you will see. This won't affect your book.
