Hello,

You could change or remove it using DOCXPath (https://www.phpdocx.com/documentation/introduction/docxpath) doing a query by it's content.

Regards.

Thanks for the suggestion but I don't really see how you would do it. Is that the only way?

Hello,

You could also generate a macro and autorun it when the DOCX is open.

Regards.

Is it possible to trigger a macro via phpdocx?

Hello,

No, phpdocx can't run MS Word macros. The library only can add macros from external files or keep the existing ones in a template.

Regards.

I'll rephrase my question. Imagine I have a doc looking like this:

My cross-reference to "Third sub-title" is: 1.c

1.      First title
    a.  First sub-title
~BLOCK_testBlock~
    b.  Second sub-title
~BLOCK_testBlock~
    c.  Third sub-title
2.      Second title
3.      Third title

Now, let's imagine I remove 1.b programmaticaly.

With DOCXPath as you suggest, how can I change my cross-reference from 1.c to 1.b? I managed to do it if the cross reference text is set to "Paragraph text" via the getWordContents() function. But getting the list style / numbering seems difficult.

Thanks,

Hello,

There's no method or option to get the numbering value of a list item, as it's set dinamically when the DOCX is open. Maybe you could use addLink with an internal bookmark (https://www.phpdocx.com/api-documentation/word-content/insert-link-Word-document-with-PHP), adding a fixed string. But to change a bookmark value of a link dinamically you may need to use DOCXCustomizer (https://www.phpdocx.com/documentation/introduction/docxcustomizer) that is only available in Premium licenses.

I used embedHTML() function to achieve this. Manipulating array automatically update links too connected to array's key. Create an array of your chapters, loop your bullet points based on that array. But I guess we have a different scenario.
