Quick summary
Confluence can sometimes break numbered list sequencing when content is interrupted, but you can restore and continue numbering by pressing Enter after the last item or manually typing the next number followed by a space.
Steps
- Press Enter after your last numbered item so Confluence will automatically create the next number in the sequence.
- Watch as Confluence auto-generates the next list number, continuing the sequence seamlessly.
- If numbering breaks, type the next number, press space, and Confluence will recognize and continue the list.
- Confirm your list continues seamlessly — numbering is restored and the sequence is intact.
