 * Hi
 * I am trying to add the table of contents using the [toc] shortcode via a hook
   with the Genesis theme.
 * I only want the the TOC to appear on certain posts and pages based on category
   and other similar criteria.
 * If I uncheck all options under…
    Auto insert for the following content types
 * And then insert the TOC shortcode using…
 * <?php echo do_shortcode( ‘[toc]’ ); ?>
 * with some conditional attached, the TOC will not show up on any posts or pages.
 * When I check ‘posts’ under:
    Auto insert for the following content types
 * The toc appears on all posts.
 * Can you advise me how select the correct plugin settings to selectively target
   where the TOC appears.
 * Thanks
 * J
