How do I incorporate standalone content into a QCH file?

[wysota]

You can do that but for it to work you need to properly populate the help generator project file. Take a look at existing files and follow the pattern. Pay attention to the namespace (or rather "virtual folder") part, it can't be some arbitrary path.

Many thanks for the quick response, Wysota. I tried every combination of entries I could think of in the virtualFolder tag and namespace tag, both in the .qhp as well as all involved .html files. Even tried deleting one tag, then the other, etc., but I still get the same error on the TOC entries and search result entries for the .html files not created through code extraction (the concept topics). The .html files created through extraction work every time.

I couldn’t find a sample that separates the extraction step from the .qch file creation step (ie, has “outside” .html files to deal with). Do you know of any or have a sample? Or is there a better way to bring these “outside” files in? It’s almost as if index.html is getting inserted into the path for some reason (going by the error message). Should’ve mentioned none of the .html files I want to add are named index.html. Or perhaps there are key places I need to match up virtual folder and/or namespace—do you know what those are?

Wysota--I figured it out. It was a script in the files that Qt Creator didn't like. It's working now. Many thanks again for your help (without your note telling me it should work, I wouldn't have kept trying things.)
