BBCode lists don't seem to work, but the entry form says it should!

Markdown formatted list:

  1. Hi
    • There
    • Sailor
      • Boy

BBCode formatted list:

[list]
[] Hi
[list=1]
[]There
[]Sailor
[list=2]
[]Boy
[/list]
[/list]
[/list]

No big deal but the text entry said to use markdown or bbcode.

@neil, can you shed some light on this?

Looks like we only support a subset of bbcode’s tags. Lists with [ul] syntax seems to work, but not [list]:

[ul] [li]Item 1[/li] [li]Item 2[/li] [/ul]

[ul] [li]Item 1[/li] [li]Item 2[/li] [/ul]

But since Markdown is available, just use it instead. It’s so much easier to use, especially for lists:

* item 1
* item 2
