Nested Ordered Lists

Description

When ordered lists are nested, by default each level will have the same style of numbering, but this plugin allows lists nested up to three levels deep to have different styles of number identifiers.

These list styles are also reflected in the visual editor, and to help visualise the nesting hierarchy of ordered lists in the visual editor, a subtle border is shown around lists.

FAQ

Where is the admin page?

This plugin doesn’t have any options, so there is no admin page.

Can I get more nested levels, or custom styles for the list items?

contact the developer to enquire about commissioning a custom version of the plugin.

THANK YOU FOR THIS PLUGIN! I spent *HOURS* editing HTML, again and again, trying to get a complex instruction set done in a list of three levels. I know HTML and I’m a pro. I diligently followed every new tip I could find to TRICK the WordPress editor into allowing me to use real for real HTML for lists the way it should be done. Nothing worked and so I searched for a WordPress plugin to solve this and I found your plugin. I’m going to share your plugin with everyone I know and install it on all client sites from now on. THANK YOU! Now my page works the way nested HTML lists are supposed to work in spite of WordPress not supporting this. Chris

This plugin is perfect! I needed simple OL / UL styling, and with this plugin, I don’t have to fight with CSS myself. Thanks very much for making this easy!
