When the list is Numbered it’s fine. Number one Number two Number three But as soon you have some comments in between list then it resets numbers, no matter what you write. Number four Some text here Number five Some text here [image]

There is a workaround to put Preformatted Text tags around: When the list is Numbered it’s fine. Number one Number two Number three But as soon you have some comments in between list then it resets numbers, no matter what you write. 4. Number four Some text here 5. Number five Some text here

Yeah, this is a known limitation of markdown, you can’t break the list: 1. Test 2. Another Comment 3. Works If you never break the block 4. See? Test Another Comment Works If you never break the block See? Markdown-it makes this a little better by allowing lists to start at arbitrary numbers.

Ok, thx for the link Edit: To make in simple words to someone who could find this usefull I’ve found that if you don’t have empty row above (write anything) the list will continue to count. [image] In the example number 4 has _ above while number 5 has empty row.
