## Description

Headingo is a lightweight utility plugin that allows administrators to control which
heading levels are available in the editor toolbar. This tool only works for websites
using the Classic Editor.

These settings are applied to all users with editing permissions.

The configurable heading levels are:

 * Heading 1
 * Heading 2
 * Heading 3
 * Heading 4
 * Heading 5
 * Heading 6
 * Preformatted

This is especially useful for removing the Heading 1 (H1) option to prevent editors
from mistakenly selecting it, as well as removing heading levels which are not required
on your website.

This plugin is intended for websites that rely on the Classic Editor editing experience.
It does not attempt to modify the Block Editor (Gutenberg), where heading availability
is governed by editor and theme configuration (theme.json) by design. The Classic
Editor plugin is required for this plugin to work (or a theme that allows you to
switch to the Classic Editor without the plugin).

### Classic Editor

The Classic Editor (TinyMCE) is fully supported. Selected heading levels and Preformatted
can be hidden from the formatting dropdown while remaining available via keyboard
shortcuts or pasted HTML. The Paragraph option is always available and cannot be
toggled.

### Block Editor (Gutenberg)

This plugin does not control heading levels in the Block Editor. Gutenberg does 
not currently provide a reliable API for plugins to override available heading levels,
as these are controlled by editor and theme settings.

## Installation

 1. Install and activate the Classic Editor plugin, or enable it in your theme settings
    if applicable
 2. Upload and activate this plugin
 3. Configure under Settings  Heading Visibility
