Lists that continue past pullet points

[jackmielke]

Hi there, I’ve just got a quick question about lists that I couldn’t find a simple answer to anywhere:
My list won’t continue in the right numerical order after I add bullet points below one section of the list, and I’m wondering how to keep the list continued? (like the list that goes past 7 below):

Hi @jackmielke, if you open up the code view for this text, you will probably see two separate ordered lists:

<ol>
  <li>first</li>
  <li>second</li>
  <li>third</li>
</ol> // this ends the first ordered list
<ul>
  <li>bullet</li>
  <li>bullet two</li>
</ul>
<ol> // this starts a new list at #1
  <li>fourth</li>
</ol>

If you remove the end tag of the first list and the beginning tag of the second list, this should fix the numbers for you. Ex:

<ol>
  <li>first</li>
  <li>second</li>
  <li>third</li>
  <ul>
    <li>bullet</li>
    <li>bullet two</li>
  </ul>
  <li>fourth</li>
</ol>

Thanks @sarah that helped a lot!
