Using the macro
You can find the Numbered Headings macro in the Confluence macro browser. When you edit a page, locate the Insert button in the editor toolbar and choose Other macros. In the browser, search for Numbered Headings. Alternatively, you can start typing on the page. By typing /number, Confluence suggests adding the Numbered Headings macro. Place any content containing headings you wish to number inside the macro.
