Linking to Headings with Appfire NumberedHeadings macro

[Rodney Hughes]

Hi 

re https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/16063/numbered-headings?hosting=server&tab=overview

we use this macro extensively for our documentation and it is GREAT. 

Each page represents a Chapter with sections on each page so we get a page for say Chapter 3 that looks like this:

3 Title

3.1 section

3.1.1 subsection

BUT ... I need to insert a link to a certain heading in various places both on the same page, and/or in other pages.

When I use the "normal" Confluence "Advanced" link mechanism from the toolbar, it doesn't pickup the numbering, just the text

so a link would just show on the page as  "section"

How can I get the link to also show the numbering?
i.e. it should show as   "3.1 section"
and it should auto-update if the numbering changes with a new heading added in.

Hi @Rodney Hughes 

Not sure on the right answer here, but I'd added the correct label to tag this as a question for that specific App.

I'd also recommend contacting the vendor directly - to do this:

1. Go to the Support tab on their Marketplace listing - https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/16063/numbered-headings?hosting=server&tab=support
2. Select a contact option from the right-hand side

Let us know if you find a resolution!

Thanks @Ste Wright 

Yes, I have contacted Appfire directly already ...

I am hoping for a good solution either from the Community (hold your left ear, pat the top of your head and click .... 😄) or from AppFire (or others) as some sort of enhanced linking plugin
