Troubleshooting

Problem: Numbered list or procedure numbering restarts in the middle.

Solution: Make sure you have no empty lines , lines without formatting, or lines that are incorrectly formatted. See Numbered Lists and Procedures.

Problem: Need to indent a table to incude it in a procedure.

Solution: Unfortunately, this is not currently possible.

Problem: Text appears in a blue box.

Solution: The line starts with a blank space. Remove the space.

Problem: My content includes HTML markup. The Wiki thinks it's supposed to render my content.

Solution: Enclose all HTML content between <nowiki> and </nowiki> tags.
