Is it possible to including portions of numbered lists with numbering kept in sequence?

Hi,
we are using mkdocs-include-markdown-plugin with Material MKDocs, and it works really well.

There is just one case I'm having trouble with: We have several step-by-step numbered lists which are partially repeated in various places. So we want to use an include statement to include the repeating steps in the places from the same include-file. The content gets included just fine, but the numbering of the included steps restarts at 1 and the steps that come after the include statement (but are part of the same list) also restart at 1 instead of continuing.

So my question is - is this possible somehow? What would the syntax or config for that be?

Here are some screenshots for context:

Any help will be much appreciated.

Birgit.

Several things probably happening here that you must take into account:

• You can use ordered lists with all ones as numbers and will be rendered correctly, see https://www.markdownguide.org/basic-syntax/#ordered-lists
• If you don't use comments=false, two newlines will be included in the content, probably resetting the count. comments=false will be the default from v7.0.0, see Turn off comments by default #194
• Another option is to only include the content of the list item and not the list item itself (also with comments=false) with something like 1. {% include-markdown ... %}.
