When using the native “Slide number” component provided by Figma Slides, the page number is handled automatically. However, enabling the “Include total” option — which displays the format “current page / total slides” — introduces a problem. If new slides are added after the component has already been inserted, the total number of slides does not update automatically and remains stuck at the previous count.
The only workaround found is to manually toggle the “Include total” option OFF and then back ON. While this does refresh the total correctly, it becomes impractical when dealing with a large number of slides.
