Navbar section numbering doesn't renders on local build or on web deploy

[rickecon]

I have posted this problem as an bug Issue #822 in the Jupyter Book repository. Our chapter numbers are not rendering when we build the book.

In an earlier version of jupyter-book the local build of the book accessed by opening the file ./_build/html/index.html in a Google Chrome browser, the left-side navbar looks as expected. I've circled in red the navbar chapter numbers we expected.

However, with the updated jupyter-book=0.7.3 and the updated _config.yml and _toc.yml, the book now renders locally and on the GitHub page upon build with no chapter numbers.

Building Jupyter-Book from the master branch, I am able to get the book to build with numbered sections, but section numbers begin again in each chapter:

Yes @jdebacker . I just installed the most recent commits to jupyter-book's master that are not yet in version 0.7.3 and I get the same numbering, although it also repeats in each section.

The conclusion at the end of my issue thread in the jupyter-book repository is that the numbering is not set up correctly yet. So I am going to remove the numbering from the _toc.yml for now and put it back in when the numbering behavior works better.

@rickecon Sounds like a good plan.

This problem with numbering is still true in Jupyter Book version 0.7.4, which became part of the environment in PR #25. PR #26 updates the _toc.yml to the version 0.7.4 format, but the chapter numbers still repeat across parts.
