I want to use a series of numbered slides with main points in the lesson. There will be other slides in between the numbered slides. Even though I have typed "3. " in front of the third point, the slide visual has "1. " for the numbering. I cannot find a way to force it to use the number I want.

    Thank you for pointing this out. I will be logging this bug and talking to our development team about it later today. While I know it's not the best solution, but after testing it, the best workaround I could find for this was to do "3 - text here" in the "Body Text" area of the media editor.

    In doing more testing with this bug, when I go back to the "Edit" tab of Sermon Builder, it seems the correct number is still being displayed on the slide though. The problem for me only resides in the "Media" window where the number isn't being appropriately displayed. However, if the change is made within the "Edit" tab of Sermon Builder itself, the slide image seems to update itself. Are you noticing the same behavior?

    Let me be clear in that I still think this needs to be resolved in the "Media" window, but I am just trying to determine if your numbers still appear correctly on the slides within the "Edit" area of Sermon Builder or not. I also checked this in Preaching Mode and it seems the correct numbers on the slides will show there too.

    Thanks for the extra info as we diagnose this.

    @austin-bush-19 Yes, I am seeing the same thing. The numbers are correct in the main Sermon Builder screen, just not in the Media editor. I do not use the Preaching Mode because I can't rely on Internet access in my classroom. Also, I want to add animations or other effects to some of the slides, effects that I cannot add in Sermon Builder. So I always export to PowerPoint in a way that lets me further edit the text. I tested that export process with this sermon file, and the numbers are correct in the export. So it does seem to be limited to the Media window where the wrong number appears on the slide.
