How can I make a list of child pages that updates automatically as they are added?

Question

Hey there! I am trying to get a page to list all the child issues under it, but that list requires me to edit the parent page to get the new child pages to show up.

I have memory of a macro that would make a list and do this automagically, but I can't remember what it was. Help! Please and thank you. :)

Hi @lchurch

I suspect it is due to the same bug reported in the following post as well:

Thank you.

I was! But it appears that this list doesn't update automatically.

Hi @lchurch

Welcome to the community.

I believe you are referring to the Child pages macro:
