Now it is impossible to add multilevel numbering to the page headings in multipage PDF export.
It is because of enclosing page's heading elements (that may be demoted to h1,h2,h3,...h7 during page hierarchy building when exporting) into the div.wiki-content > div.pagetitle.
That's why calling smth. like h1
has no meaning because it will create a new instance of h1-title counter in the parent element div.wiki-content > div.pagetitle and will be popd after it is closed. And when a new div.wiki-content element (a new page) will be opened there will be a untouched counter value.
Please add a class to the div.wiki-content element that can classify the heading level (h1,h2,..h7) of the page title of the enclosed content (actually it will be enaught to copy the name of the type of the first child of the div.wiki-content > div.pagetitle element).
Something like this:
<div class="wiki-content h1">
<div class="pagetitle" id="Main topic">
<h1>Main topic</h1>
....
</div>
</div>
<div class="hidden rendered-page"></div>
<div class="wiki-content h2">
<div class="pagetitle" id="Subpage title">
<h2>Subpage title</h2>

added a comment - AFAIK there were no points of connections for the templates that are used to generate the html source for pdf producing. I think there is no way to achieve it via plugin.
But still need a Confluence dev's comment on it.

added a comment - Hello,
What we are trying to achieve is to be able to export entire space preserving page sections (headers) numbering - for now it is not working correctly.
If this issue isn't planned to be fixed in the near future then maybe there is someone who can provide some kind of workaround to this problem?
Maybe there is something we can do to help in resolving this issue? Personally I am familiar with plugin development for Atlassian pruducts (especially for Jira and Confluence) and really want this feature to work as expected.
Any response will be appreciated.
