Markdown list not displaying

support
1

Hi,

I am trying to get a simple list to display in a blog entry. I am writing in markdown as follows

For me:
- base URL : `my blog address`
- layoutdir : `templates`
- publishdir : `public`

and getting this output in html

For me:
- base URL : my blog address
- layoutdir : templates
- publishdir : public

where, as you can see, there is not ul or li element included. I have tried using markdown preview (github flavor and simple markdown) to see if the markdown is incorrect (spacing issues or whatnot) and it renders correctly every time. Can somebody tell me what I am doing wrong.

Thanks.

Try having an empty line between me: and the list.

For me:

- base URL : `my blog address`
- layoutdir : `templates`
- publishdir : `public`

Not tested but sometimes you need to add two spaces after a line, too.

Thanks @parsiya. The space did the trick. Only very slightly disappointed, since I would have liked to not have the extra vertical space, but I can live with it.

@RickCogley, I did try with the spaces before posting here and it did not do the trick. Thanks for the suggestion.

Yeah it looks like markdown engines vary on that. We have a couple systems that use markdown, that do things differently, unfortunately.
