Description Subfader 2012-04-24 08:13:44 UTC
There is no way to add a pre box in a list, nor indented

* List item 1
* List item 2
<pre>
Text in
pre box
</pre>
* List item 3

returns 2 ul>li,li / pre / ul>li

The aim may not be proper HTML but should be possible, just like images in lists:

* List item 1<br>[[File:Example.jpg]]

I'm not sure this  should be possible "just like images in lists" but ok

For reference, see 	https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Project:Support_desk/unexpected_formatting_with_PRE_and_OL

I think this behaviour would be somewhat difficult to change (saying that without looking at code) and there is a work around (of using html tag syntax)
Comment 3 Subfader 2012-05-01 10:02:29 UTC
Telling the user to use HTML syntax because the software is buggy is uncool.
Comment 4 Bawolff (Brian Wolff) 2012-05-01 18:46:31 UTC
More cool then telling users that its impossible to do something :P

I don't mean to say that if there is a patch it should be rejected, only that this is probably not the most important issue ever since it would be a lot of work to fix, doesn't affect a lot of people, and there is a way around for people who absolutely do need to get around it. So if someone does fix it, it'd be awesome, but at the same time it shouldn't be considered a high priority issue.
