Hi sphinx-users,

For the documentation I write, I would like to add a custom caption to the sidebar. The code bellow worked well until I updated to Sphinx 1.5.3:

|Contents -------- .. toctree:: :hidden: :caption: Libdynamixel .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 self tutorials/index |

Since the update, the hidden toctree is actually hidden from both the table of contents and the sidebar. I wouldn’t like to add the caption to a non-hidden toctree since it would add the caption in the document where the toctree is written (just bellow |Contents|).

The official documentation <http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/markup/toctree.html?highlight=hidden> seems to still support the use case :

   You can also give a “hidden” option to the directive, like this:

   |.. toctree:: :hidden: doc_1 doc_2 |

   This will still notify Sphinx of the document hierarchy, but not
   insert links into the document at the location of the directive –
   this makes sense if you intend to insert these links yourself, in a
   different style, or in the HTML sidebar.

Could you help me understand what caused this change and how to make the sidebar captioned again ?

Thanks,

Dorian
