 * Hi! Thanks for the great plugin 🙂
 * We recently updatet the plugin and since the 2 latest updates the internal link
   element ‘/category/’ is missing in the table of contents on blogposts.
 * For example, here: https:www.fit.nl/begrippen/slapen
 * I checked on the dev environment and we didn’t have the issue with 2.0.11
 * Do you know how to solve this missing ‘slug’ element?
 * Thanks in advance

 * Sorry, I do not think I understand the issue. I looked at the page and the TOC
   link appears to be correct and seems to function correctly.

 * Thanks for your reply!
 * Yes it works now. Because we used an older plugin version. Problem only exist
   when running the latest versions.

 * I see, I did not notice the version when I looked at the site. When you say the“
   slug” do you mean the heading `id`?

 * Hi Steven,
 * Thanks for helping out. I tried the newest version on our dev.
 * What happens is:
 * With version 2.0.11 the content of table generates links like: rootdomain/category/#
   anchor
 * With version: 2.0.17 the content of table generates links like:
    rootdomain/#
   anchor
 * So with upgrading the plugin it loses the category slug element in the link generation
   within the content of tables.
