TeX - LaTeX Asked by Bobby Ocean on August 20, 2020
How do I remove a section/subsection title, but keep the section/subsection name in the headings and in the table of contents?
For example, I type in my document somewhere,
section{My Section}
and I get
“(section number) MY SECTION” in the headings,
“(section number) My Section………(page number)” in the table of contents,
“(section number) My Section” before the first paragraph.
How do I prevent the third item from occurring?
I have been searching for hours and it seems that this should have a simple one line solution, but I haven’t found it. I have thought about using
addcontentsline{toc}{subsection}{My Section}
but then I lose “(section number) MY SECTION” in the headings and I lose the (section number) in the table of contents. So an equivalent set of question,
How do I add numbered sections to the toc and to the headings?
Working example?
documentclass[12pt]{book}
usepackage{lipsum}
begin{document}
tableofcontents
chapter{Chapter 1}
section{Section 1}
subsection{Subsection 1}
Here is lovely paragraph. And notice there is a ``subsection title'' right above me. How do I get rid of that title thingy????
subsection{Subsection 2}
More stuff..... $$1+2+3+cdots+infty=-frac{1}{12}$$
lipsum[1-10]
section{Section 2}
lipsum[1-10]
Section{Section 3}
lipsum[1-10]
chapter{Chapter 2}
section{Section 1}
Again, above me a section name, how do I get rid of that guy???
lipsum[1-10]
section{Section 2}
lipsum[1-10]
end{document}
You can define a fakesection
that does all the things the regular section
does except print the actual heading:
newcommand{fakesection}[1]{%
parrefstepcounter{section}% Increase section counter
sectionmark{#1}% Add section mark (header)
addcontentsline{toc}{section}{protectnumberline{thesection}#1}% Add section to ToC
% Add more content here, if needed.
}
A similar macro for fakesubsection
would be
newcommand{fakesubsection}[1]{%
parrefstepcounter{subsection}% Increase subsection counter
subsectionmark{#1}% Add subsection mark (header)
addcontentsline{toc}{subsection}{protectnumberline{thesubsection}#1}% Add subsection to ToC
% Add more content here, if needed.
}
The uses would be fakesection{some section}
and fakesubsection{some subsection}
.

I can't see any application for this setting: without any visual clue in the text, a table of contents containing inexistent titles doesn't make sense.
However, one can do it with titlesec
, ensuring that the references will be correct, both in the table of contents and with the label
-ref
mechanism.
documentclass{book}
usepackage{lipsum}
usepackage{titlesec}
makeatletter
titleformat{section}[runin]{}{}{0pt}{@gobble}
titleformat{subsection}[runin]{}{}{0pt}{@gobble}
makeatother
titlespacing{section}{parindent}{0pt}{0pt}
titlespacing{subsection}{parindent}{0pt}{0pt}
begin{document}
tableofcontents
chapter{Chapter 1}
section{Section 1}
subsection{Subsection 1}
Here is lovely paragraph. And notice there is a ``subsection title''
right above me. How do I get rid of that title thingy?
subsection{Subsection 2}
More stuff:
[
1+2+3+cdots+infty=-frac{1}{12}
]
lipsum[1-10]
section{Section 2}
lipsum[1-10]
end{document}

everybody!
I was tring to do the same and found a simple solution if it's helpfull.
Write:
lhead{Whatever you want}
rhead{nothing if you want to avoid the number and title of sections}
begin{document}
It worked for me.
Good luck!
