Confluence administrators can collectively enable numbered headings for all spaces and specify how they can be applied across all pages globally.
Do the following to access the space numbering option:
Log in as an administrator or space administrator.
Navigate to Settings → Numbered Headings → Configuration. The Global numbering option for Numbered Headings is displayed.
Enable the Enable Global Numbering option.
Any changes made to the settings are saved automatically.
This configuration holds precedence at the page level, space level, and then at the global level.
