  • list point one
  • point 2
  • point 3

Code: Select all

[list][*]list point one
[*]point 2
[*]point 3[/list]
you need to put in more than one [*] to make it function it looks like. (because really, why would you need only one point in a list)

I mean the ordered list tag, with the equality sign. The unordered tag works perfectly.

thats what I get for editing my text and previewing :P I missed that I edited that out :)

I will look at the phpbb, though I wont be able to change anything here, I suspect something is wrong with the code

Ok! I have solved it/figured it out...
  • point 1
  • point 2
  • point 3
To do an ordered list you need to put a number after the equals sign, the strange thing though is that the number really is unimportant, it can be more or less than the actual size of the list...like for the above I used:

Code: Select all

[list=0][*]point 1[*]point 2[*]point 3[/list]
now, be reasonable with the number (no gazillion trillions, ok)... though there probably are steps taken to remove problems due to this (I can think of an easy way).
