Request: Option for disabling heading 1s #357

Open robbieaverill opened 8 years ago

While this request could be considered as a more broad request to be able to disable various types of elements from being rendered, I'm focusing this particular request on the heading 1 element.

Why? Because you should only use an H1 element once per page for SEO/good content reasons.

I understand the requirement for this editor to be reusable among various applications, so I'm suggesting a setting to disable it from being rendered.

In my case, I'd have a separate text field for the heading 1. I'd like to prevent it from rendering in previews (including the editing preview), but still allow other headings to render.

Just to mention, since the release of HTML 5, it is perfectly semantically correct, and SEO friendly, to have multiple h1 tags on a page, provided that they are within different sections/articles.

Here's a (rather lengthy) but informative article explaining it: https://webdesign.tutsplus.com/articles/the-truth-about-multiple-h1-tags-in-the-html5-era--webdesign-16824

So allowing the h1s wouldn't be an SEO issue, any more.
