Nothing on this site indexes and markdown counts stay empty

What you are seeing

Nothing on this site indexes and markdown counts stay empty.


#Why it happens

Markdown is only indexed when the app is licensed. On an unlicensed or evaluation site, indexing never starts.


#What to do

Check that the app is licensed on this site.


#Settings involved

Where

What it does

Markdown capability

Global settings → Capabilities → Markdown

Hiding Markdown removes it from the Capable navigation bar and the page byline menu across the site. It does not stop existing macros from rendering.

Space capability settings

Space settings → Space Capability Settings

Auto shows the byline entry only when the page already contains markdown. Always shows it on every page in that space. Never hides it there.

AI integration

Global settings → Features → AI integration

'Allow AI-powered features across Capable. Turn off to disable AI for all users.' Turning it off removes the Studio (Generate markdown with AI) section from the markdown catalogue.


#Limits that apply here

Limit

Value

What happens

Large document display

500,000 characters

Past this, the macro shows 'Large content detected. Rendering in scrollable mode.' and displays the document in a scrollable box, 1200 pixels high, instead of inline.

Very large documents

Over 500,000 characters

Only the part of the document you are viewing is drawn, which keeps long documents responsive.

Document size for Rovo and MCP tools

512 KB (524,288 characters)

Creating or updating a markdown document through Capable's tools is refused, not shortened, if it is larger than this. You'll be asked to split it up.
