Ah thank you, it would appear to be an existing know issue…but not fixed
I didn’t want to use HTML code as this will ultimately be handed over to a client for them to update, so having a mix of markdown and HTML could lead to lots of issues of broken pages. Simple lists might be ok, but as I need to have paragraph text within the li it makes it a little more complex.
For the interim period I am going to look at the TinyMCE Editor plugin to see if this can do what I need.
Many thanks again
