SID-01113: Doing INCLUDE inside bullet of page with bullets problem

I have two pages. One has a small list of numbered items.

The other page has a long list of numbered items. Inside that list is a sub-bullet with an INCLUDE to the first page. I was expecting the small page to be a list of indented items in the first page's list.

Example of expected:

1. item a
2. item b
   • Sub items from include page follow
     1. hello
     2. test
3. item c
4. item d

1. item a
2. item b
   • Sub items from include page follow
     1. hello
     2. test

• item c
• item d

Doing this in Confluence (trying to convert from that wiki) was easy. Any particular way to do it in Twiki?

Discussion and Answer

TWiki does not alter the bullet level when including another topic, see docs at VarINCLUDE. The upcoming TWiki-5.1 will have RelativeHeadingLevelsforSEARCH.

Feel free do post a similar feature request for relative bullets in TWikiFeatureProposals. TWiki is open source software where people take and give. If you are a coder we'd love you to GettingInvolved. Or you could hire a one of the TWikiConsultants to code it for you.

PS: As a workaround, include a page that has bullets that start at level 3.
