Not support [TOC]

Thereare two issues preventing this to happen:

1. the current markdown converter can only produce the TOC when also inserting id attributes in headings. This clashes with Evernote's format restrictions (no id nor class attributes are allowed)
2. even if we fixed this, Evernote does not support internal links, making a TOC rather useless

I think Evernote is designed to support a workflow where every "project" has its Notebook and the notes are short and to the point. So a similar effect to a TOC can be obtained by having a single note per section and using tags/notebooks to assemble the sections under an uniform topic. Then you can also add a "TOC" note to the notebook containing links to the other notes (this can be done, see the wiki)

I tried to make a custom TOC by using anchors/internal links using markdown syntax, e.g.

[1. Overview](#overview)   

## Overview <a name="overview"></a>

But the links doesn't work in the Evernote app. Is this due to the same reasons?

[bordaigorl]

Yes. Quite simply, internal links are not supported by any Evernote client I know.

However, let me point out that with a properly configured markdown syntax you can get your sections indexed by ST (Ctrl+R) and available as a TOC in a quick panel. This way you can have automatic TOCs in ST without having a textual toc in the note itself.

Evernote does support TOC now！

[bordaigorl]

@cjh1993129 is this documented somewhere?

Maybe you can create a fake TOC in the evernote app (can't link). @bordaigorl
