  • Brief description:
    • Have you ever wanted headings on your Drupal site to have unique id values, so links can be created to take users to specific parts of any page? There’s a module for that.
  • Module name/project name:
  • Brief history
    • How old: created in Jun 2020 by Chris Komlenic (komlenic) of Penn State
    • Versions available: 2.1.1-beta1, which supports Drupal 8.8, 9, and 10
  • Maintainership
    • Test coverage
    • Number of open issues: x open issues, y of which are bugs against the current branch
  • Usage stats:
    • 137 sites
  • Module features and usage
    • By default, the module automatically generates ids on <h2>, <h3>, <h4>, <h5>, and <h6> elements within the page content
    • Even if two headings have the same content, the module will make sure their ids are unique, as well as making sure they are i18n-friendly, use hyphens instead of spaces, and are short enough to be useful
    • The module won’t interfere with or change manually-added or already-existing HTML ids
    • There’s a permission to view helpful links on each heading that the ids obvious and easy to copy
    • Configuration options include the root element it should look within (defaults to the body tag), which elements should get ids, what content to use for the displayed links, and whether or not generate ids on admin pages
