Glitch with Numbered Lists

I'm having the same glitch with numbered lists that I've seen reported elsewhere. In Edit Mode, the numbers are correct, but in Preview and/or Published, the numbers are all 1s.

Here is a video where you can see the difference: https://vimeo.com/818843832/6cd1426ce4?share=copy

I figured out the problem/solution (there's an extra space somewhere between the two numbers lined, and lots of backspaces and re-entering realigns them again), but I'm hoping for a better fix for edit to accurately reflect what's going on so that I don't have to keep switching between Edit and Preview.

(Side note: this used to happen in MS Word way back in the 90s, and I remembered the fix from then.)

 

Edit to add: And here's a video of the keystrokes I have to do to fix it. https://vimeo.com/818850450/262a48209c?share=copy

Note: This is text copied from a word document, so I'm sure formatting is coming over that I can't see. I just want Rise website to consistently format the content in Preview vs Edit.

 

 

  • Hi Heather! Thanks for letting us know you're encountering this issue.

    You mentioned that this text was copied from a Word document. Was the text originally created using MS Word or was it also copied from an external source? I was asking this because, in my testing, I typed in all the text in MS Word and converted it into a numbered list before copying it over to Rise.

    I did not encounter the issue you showed in your recording. The numbered list appeared just fine on both Edit and Preview modes on my tests. Here's a quick recording for reference.

    I'd like to know more about how you encountered the glitch so I can try to replicate it from my end.

  • Have you tried using the clear formatting button? It looks like there are a load of line breaks coming over. You could paste into notepad and see if you have any hidden characters.
