Description

I wish posts with headers were clickable like this header. Kramdown has an option for clickable header links, but it does not work.

Research direction
Check the repository's config.yml to see the Kramdown configuration and whether the header links option is enabled. If not, add it and test. If it's already enabled but not working, inspect the generated HTML to see if anchors are missing. Look at the theme's header layout ( includes/head.html or similar) to ensure CSS or JS is not interfering. The issue comments may contain hints; read them for context.
