Why does paragraph-numbering not work?

I have numbering working in various places throughout my documents, but here it won't work. Why?

Correct answer jmlevy

It is because the field “numbers” is empty. It can't be empty. See my screenshot:

You must have at least ^# which is the automatic numbering symbol.

    Thanks! I just tried again in another area and this field defaulted to empty, leaving the user with no clue as to what is supposed to go in there.

    But you wrote:

    How did you do if this field is empty? And this is very strange, I never found it empty (without manually deleting the content). There is a submenu avalaible here:
