Where to edit to control generate li tag

#1

I am new to Hugo

Hugo generate a p inside li tag: <ul><li><p>text</p></li>…

My style sheet have a left margin for paragraph indent, but I do not want <li> to be indented.

Where can I edit to tell Hugo not to put a <p> tage after the <li>? Or at lease assign a special class such that I can put into the stylesheet?

Welcome to the forums!

Hugo’s markdown parser is powered by Goldmark (previous it was Blackfriday)
but it does not generate a p tag inside an li unless you have a double line break on your .md file.

See example markdown, not that there is only 1 line break on the - items:

This is a paragraph, followed by a list.

- Item 1
- Item 2

And here is another paragraph.

This is the generated HTML:

<p>This is a paragraph, followed by a list.</p>

<ul>
<li>Item 1</li>
<li>Item 2</li>
</ul>

<p>And here is another paragraph.</p>

But if you have 2 or more line breaks between the list items, you will get a p tag inside the list:

This is a paragraph, followed by a list.

- Item 1

- Item 2

And here is another paragraph.

This markdown above will generate this HTML:

<p>This is a paragraph, followed by a list.</p>
<ul>
    <li>
        <p>Item 1</p>
    </li>
    <li>
        <p>Item 2</p>
    </li>
</ul>
<p>And here is another paragraph.</p>
