Hi,
first of all thanks for this wonderful tool that pandoc is!

My question resembles what already mentioned in this discussion here:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/pandoc-discuss/8z9pBUZhhik
and here:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/pandoc-discuss/-dY8pTzvZCM
as well as in discussion following GitHub issue #1612 
<https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/issues/1612>

I am trying to find a way to move the auto-generated TOC when producing an 
epub from markdown, to a different
position in the resulting epub structure, as outlined by Pablo *ousia* in 
one of his answers given, e.g.

The second suggestion was to be able to place the TOC itself wherever 
the user would like.

I have an "intro.md" section that is

---
title: E il serpente disse alla donna
author: Lourdes Oñederra
toc-title: Indice
...

[libedizioni.it](http://www.libedizioni.it)

<div class="breakpage"></div>

Titolo originale **Eta emakumeari sugeak esan zion**
Editoriale originale **Erein, 1999**
other infos and metadata fileds here...

<div class="breakpage"></div>



Did not understand if it is now possible or not: setting the *toc-title* 
from metadata block is working without problems,
I just can't figure out how to move the TOC after the

<div class="breakpage"></div>

as noe it renders just before the [libedizioni.it] link

I’m afraid the user may be able to place the bibliography in the ePub
document, but not the table of contents.

There is a possibility to place the table of contents using a custom
template. I don’t know how to use it, since I don’t add TOC to ePub
documents (I cannot place them at will).

Hi, thanks for answering.
made some trials, and have been able to move the epub TOC by including the
book intro as metadata inside a yaml block, but I am quite sure this is
just a (really) bad hackish way to do this.
I have been trying as well to do it via a custom template, but with no
success.
It doesn't change its output if I use it like ```$if(toc)$$toc$$endif```,
and removing ```--toc``` argument from the command line doesn't seem to be
the best solution for it does not validate then. Sure it can be edited by
hand, but this defeats the purpose to have pandoc in an automated workflow.
Isn't really possible to have a structure like
- title
- intro publisher page
- some book metadata and infos
- TOC (autogenerated)
- chapters
instead of the actual structure which is
- title
- TOC (autogenerated)
- some book metadata and infos
- intro publisher page
- chapters
Thanks and sorry for my bad english
