A similar feature is available for the (:`.typeset`.:) and (:`.typeset-trail`.:) directives. If the link text of a ''first level'' trail list item starts with "Appendix" as in the example above, that item and all subsequent items will be treated as ''unnumbered'' appendices to the document. The appendix indicator can also be specified in the link text:

The [[Wikibook/book]] class explicitly recognises an [[Wikibook/appendix]] `XML element as part of that document type and hence [[Wikipublisher]] will automatically number any appendices. On the other hand, the [[Wikibook/article]] and the [[Wikibook/report]] classes ''do not'' define an appendix element. As a result, Wikipublisher generates items tagged as appendices using unnumbered sections. Any subsection or lower headings within each appendix are also unnumbered.
The author may choose to number appendices to an article or report manually, of course:

When an author wishes to number appendices, the most flexible approach is to use link text rather than embedding the number in the page name. That way, the same page can be published as part of more than one trail if desired.
Appendices are automatically included in the table of contents.
