Add support for ordered and unordered lists in solution threads

Currently, solution threads do not, AFAICT, support ordered or unordered lists. There is no mention of them in the
formatting help, and experiments show the standard BBCode [
list] tag does not work.
I can see no reason why this standard element of formatting, which both HTML and BBCode natively support, should not be available when writing solution posts.

A good suggestion. I'll add it to my to-do list.

I've just added list support on the main site. There is brief documentation on the
Forum Tags page, but essentially it works like this forum. The two exceptions being you need to explicitly use an open list item tag and a closed list item tag (rather than asterisks) and it does not support nested lists.
For example, an unordered list:
Code: Select all
[list]
[li]Item 1[/li]
[li]Item 2[/li]
[/list]
will produce,
You can also use
to create an ordered (numeric) lists:
- Item 1
- Item 2
and
to create alphabetical lists:
- Item 1
- Item 2
