Placed macros not going where I'm trying to place it

Bailly Jamroz

Hi there, I'm currently making a how-to article and I wanted to add an expand in the article for a collapsable section. I am trying to add it after step 7 and have the cursor there, but when I click enter after typing /expand and clicking on the macro, it ends up placing the Expand macro all the way down to step 12 after a photo. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I'm new to the software but haven't found a fix.

@Bailly Jamroz Welcome to Confluence!

What you are trying to do - insert an expand macro in the middle of a bulleted or numbered list, is not supported in the editor. 

I assume you are doing something like the below:

And when you hit enter to try and get #7, it will not continue the numbering, or if you do it above the expand macro it moves the macro down. 

If I am correct, then my answer stands. You cannot embed a macro in a numbered or bulleted list.
