custom macro using forge

[Goutam Singla]

i have created a custom macro using forge for confluence and i have deployed it on the site also but when insert that macro in my site using /app-name it got inserted but the macro is not interactive that is i even can not click a button . and also even using the custom-ui confluence-macro template , i can not interact with that macro on the site a whenever i hover on to that macro a red circle-backslash symbol( ⦸ ) appears.

That red ⦸ cursor means the macro is rendered inside a read‑only context. Forge macros in Confluence only support interactivity in view mode, not in the editor. When you insert a custom‑UI macro using `/app-name`, Confluence shows a static preview while editing, and all event handlers (like button clicks) are disabled. This is expected behavior based on the Forge custom UI macro documentation.
Publish or view the page to test your macro’s interactive features.
