Deactivate Bibliography Auto-Titles

By default, Paligo automatically adds a "Bibliography" title to bibliographies in HTML, HTML5 and PDF outputs. You can choose to disable this feature if you prefer.

For example, if you have a bibliography inside a topic named "Bibliography", you will get two "Bibliography" titles, one for the topic and one for the bibliography. In this scenario, you will most likely want to disable the auto-title so that you only get the topic title.

A topic with the title "Bibliography". Inside the topic, there is a second title "Bibliography" and this is an auto-generated title.
A topic with the title "Bibliography". Inside the topic, there is no second title. The auto-title feature is turned off.

Tip

For PDF output, this setting is found under General → Glossary, Index, and Bibliography in Layout Editor.
