Macro preview shows incorrect cite number

[alana fernando]

Steps to recreate 1. Add single cite macros 2. Define unique ID and add cite inside side body 3. Execute step 1 to 2 one more time 4. Refresh macro preview window

Expected results Macro preview should show ‘[2]’ Actual results Macro preview shows ‘[1]’

Environment details Confluence 6.2.3 Simple Cite v1.5.0 (latest version) Chrome 58.0.3029.110 (64-bit) Fire fox 53.0.2 (64 –bit) IE 11.0.9600.18665

I found above bug when i investigate the plugin for live installment. will you please correct me if i understood something wrong. or is it a known issue?

anyway I found simple cite as a very useful plugin

Dear Alana,

thank you for this report and the positive feedback.

What you are seeing is the expected behavior. Simple Cite has to get the content of a page to determine the number of the cite. Confluence however only provides the last saved version of the page and not the floating content while editing.

I hope that helps to understand the behavior.

Kind regards

Andreas
