Ordered lists don't display with "levels." For instance, doing something like

<ol>
<li>Item 1</li>
<ol>
<li>Subitem 1</li>
</ol>
</ol>

displays all items with no additional indentation, and no way to distinguish their relationship. The list items at the first level ("Item 1") display with only a dot; no numbering or lettering appears. Items at the second level ("Subitem 1") display with a double-dot. In version 5.x-2.1 the behavior is stranger: second-level items display with letters, while first-level items still display with a dot.

Similarly, unordered lists display with no indentation between levels, making them similarly difficult to read, although the filled and hollow arrows do provide some distinction.

I'm having difficulties reproducing this.
Could you provide some more details so that I may be able to help?

I'm not sure if my problem is the same as the one reported here, but I also have problems with unordered lists. On my site, the lists have no margin, and the bullets are only "half bullets." Here's an example:

Version: 5.x-2.x-dev » 4.7.x-2.2

Just to clarify, the half-bullets is for Firefox on Windows (haven't checked yet on Mac). On IE7, I don't get any bullets at all. And I'm on 4.7.2.2.

In your style.css file on line 338, change the margin-left to 20px

Could you provide me with a URL so that I can see what's exactly going on.
Thanks.

Thanks -- that looks much better!

Example here:

This looks like it could be another margin issue.

Yup, it is.

You can see in the attached screenshot that changing the list item's left margin to 20px fixes the problem.

Because your site's style sheets are cached, I can't give you the exact line number... change you list item margin-left to 20px :

li {
margin-left:20px;
}

I will leave this bug report open to remind me to fix this for the next release.

Thanks!

Status "active" until I apply the changes to the next version release.

Note to self:
The problem is with zeroing out the margins and padding.

*
{
  margin:0;
  padding:0;
}

This is bad! :(
