What qualifies as "first part" of page content for Children Display macro

Question

I set a Children Display macro to use rich content, which according to the documentation is "the first part of the page content, including formatted text, images and some macros." Is there a more descriptive answer for how Confluence determines what qualifies as the "first part" of the page content?

Hello @JaredH,

Thank you for asking about this; it's a really good question. In general, it looks like the macro will show the first paragraph of a page, up to about 2500 characters. However, if the paragraphs are small, it could show two paragraphs within that space.

I hope that helps, but let me know if you have questions about that.

Take care,

Shannon
