Page numbering - Cloud
Page numbering helps you to number all headings on a page. Please note that page numbering is only available on a published page.
Using page numbering
Page numbering can be turned on or off from a published Confluence page. You can see the page numbering link in the information section of a Confluence page.
This setting is not available in-edit mode.
To configure page numbering, click the page numbering button and turn on the Numbered Headings toggle.
It is not recommended to combine macro numbering and page numbering on the same page. This is to prevent confusion, especially when using advanced configuration.
Configuration
Click the macro to see the option to edit the macro, and select Edit to open the macro editor.
You can perform the following configurations in the editor:
Number format: You can change the configuration of the numbering if you do not want to use the default numbering format.
Choose a number format from the dropdown.
Starting numbers: Add a comma-separated list to change the starting numbers of several levels of headings.
Starting heading: Choose the heading from which you want the numbering to begin.
Skip headings: Skip the heading that you don't require to number.
Add anchor links automatically: Include anchor links to your numbered headings in page-level configuration. Click the checkbox to include anchors in all the headings in the document. Refer to the Numbered Heading Reference Macro for more information.
For a detailed overview of the available options, refer to Formatting options.
The hierarchy of numbering configuration starts with the page level taking precedence, followed by the space level, and then to the global level.
