    Multiple macros inserted into one RichText Editor are being consolidated?

    So I've created a simple macro partial that just generates a button with a specific style. It looks a little like this:

    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Macros.PartialViewMacroPage
    @using Tessa.Utils
    
    @{
        string btnLabel = Model.MacroParameters["label"].ToString();
        string btnURL = Model.MacroParameters["linkURL"].ToString();
        string tabAttr = "";
        int newTab = Int32.Parse(Model.MacroParameters["newTab"].ToString());
    
        if (newTab == 1)
        {
            tabAttr = "target=\"_blank\"";
        }
    }
    
    @if (Request.Url.AbsolutePath.Contains("GetMacroResultAsHtmlForEditor"))
    {
        <!-- START UMBRACO BLUE BUTTON MACRO | DO NOT EDIT SOURCE -->
        <p class="blueButton">
            <span>@btnLabel</span>
        </p>
        <!-- END UMBRACO BLUE BUTTON MACRO -->
    }
    else
    {
        <a class="blueButton" href="@Utils.CheckEmptyUrl(btnURL)" @tabAttr>
            <span>@btnLabel</span>
        </a>
    }
    

    I've used it in the RichText Editor where I only had one button, and it works beautifully. However, this issue occurs when Save and/or Publish the page after I create two buttons in the same editor.

    This is what it looks like after I insert the macros (I also typed "divider" in a paragraph between the two macros).

    <div class="umb-macro-holder BlueButton mceNonEditable umb-macro-mce_0">
        <!-- <?UMBRACO_MACRO macroAlias="BlueButton" label="Button Test 1" linkURL="" newTab="0" /> --><ins>
            <!-- START UMBRACO BLUE BUTTON MACRO | DO NOT EDIT SOURCE -->
            <p class="blueButton"><span>Button Test 1</span></p>
            <!-- END UMBRACO BLUE BUTTON MACRO -->
        </ins>
    </div>
    <p>Divider</p>
    <p> </p>
    <div class="umb-macro-holder BlueButton mceNonEditable umb-macro-mce_1">
        <!-- <?UMBRACO_MACRO macroAlias="BlueButton" label="Button Test 2" linkURL="" newTab="0" /> --><ins>
            <!-- START UMBRACO BLUE BUTTON MACRO | DO NOT EDIT SOURCE -->
            <p class="blueButton"><span>Button Test 2</span></p>
            <!-- END UMBRACO BLUE BUTTON MACRO -->
        </ins>
    </div>
    

    After I Save and/or Publish, I can only see the first one in the editor, but when I look at the HTML of the editor, I can see this:

    <div class="umb-macro-holder mceNonEditable">
        <!-- <?UMBRACO_MACRO macroAlias="BlueButton" label="Button Test 1" linkURL="" newTab="0" />
        <p>Divider</p>
        <?UMBRACO_MACRO macroAlias="BlueButton" label="Button Test 2" linkURL="" newTab="0" /> -->
        <ins>
            <!-- START UMBRACO BLUE BUTTON MACRO | DO NOT EDIT SOURCE -->
            <p class="blueButton"><span>Button Test 1</span></p>
            <!-- END UMBRACO BLUE BUTTON MACRO -->
        </ins>
    </div>
    

    What is happening and how can I make it stop consolidating these macros in the editor? When I view the page, the two buttons are rendered correctly. However, it's nearly impossible to edit the second one because I can't see it in the editor. Any help is appreciated.

    P.S. This is my first question, so I'm not sure if I put it in the correct category.

    Is this in 7.2.x (< 7.2.8) by any chance? In which case: that should be fixed now in 7.2.8: https://our.umbraco.org/contribute/releases/728

    Looks like the one I have is Umbraco version 7.2.6. I installed it through the NuGet package manager in Visual Studio, so it's just the default version, I guess...

    Is it easy to upgrade?

    Edited:

    Thanks! That did the trick! Had a hiccup with the Newtonsoft.Json because Visual Studio had installed version 7+ of it and the Umbraco upgrade wouldn't work because of it. If anyone comes across that, I just uninstalled it through the Package Manager Console and then performed the Umbraco Upgrade which reinstalled the correct version.
