Title: LIST not functioning properly Last modified: March 29, 2017 --- # LIST not functioning properly * Resolved [Kingsley Felix](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iamkingsleyf/) * (@iamkingsleyf) * [9 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/list-not-functioning-properly/) * Hello; * When articles are in LIST they don’t work at it should 12345 or 54321. they display in 11111. attached a screenshot from an Ipad. * [https://www.instagram.com/p/BSOCNAzgvOk/?taken-by=gistifyme](https://www.instagram.com/p/BSOCNAzgvOk/?taken-by=gistifyme) * here is one of my list articles [https://www.healthable.org/5-brilliant-natural-ways-to-beat-fear-and-stress/](https://www.healthable.org/5-brilliant-natural-ways-to-beat-fear-and-stress/) - This topic was modified 9 years, 2 months ago by [Kingsley Felix](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iamkingsleyf/).

If your list includes content within a list item that is separated from the opening tag with newlines or breaks, it’s not going to render properly in Apple News. * However, we added support for HTML format recently, which fixes this problem. You can turn on HTML support in Apple News > Settings. The setting is still somewhat experimental, so if you encounter issues with it, please report them here. * Thanks! * [bnew215](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bnew215/) * (@bnew215) * [9 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/list-not-functioning-properly/#post-9007809) * Hi Kevin, * I also have a problem with lists: items are not appearing on the next line when they should, so you’ll get item1 item2 item3 all on the same line. * HTML support is switched on and none of my html tags are working (b, i, li, a etc). * Tested with different themes. * I posted a separate msg. a week ago. * Thanks! * Plugin Author [Bradford Campeau-Laurion](https://wordpress.org/support/users/potatomaster/) * (@potatomaster) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/list-not-functioning-properly/#post-9094896) * If you set HTML Support to ‘yes’, this should be fixed in version 1.2.7 of the plugin which is being released today. * Thanks. * Thread Starter [Kingsley Felix](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iamkingsleyf/) * (@iamkingsleyf) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/list-not-functioning-properly/#post-9097007) * alright. * Good news then * Plugin Author [Bradford Campeau-Laurion](https://wordpress.org/support/users/potatomaster/) * (@potatomaster) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/list-not-functioning-properly/#post-9097854) * Is this working for you now? * Thread Starter [Kingsley Felix](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iamkingsleyf/) * (@iamkingsleyf) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/list-not-functioning-properly/#post-9097876) * I will check later on list articles with page break those are mostly visible on News app. * Then again navigation on this iPad is something else. * Plugin Author [Bradford Campeau-Laurion](https://wordpress.org/support/users/potatomaster/) * (@potatomaster) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/list-not-functioning-properly/#post-9097892) * OK, just be aware you’d need to republish any old articles. They won’t instantly fix. * Not sure what you mean about iPad navigation. * Plugin Author [Kevin Fodness](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kevinfodness/) * (@kevinfodness) * [9 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/list-not-functioning-properly/#post-9129332) * Hi [@iamkingsleyf](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iamkingsleyf/)— * We had a separate report for this issue, which was fixed in the latest version( 1.2.7) with HTML support turned on. If you could give it a try with the updated version and the HTML option enabled and report back, I’d appreciate it. * Thanks! * Thread Starter [Kingsley Felix](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iamkingsleyf/) * (@iamkingsleyf) * [9 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/list-not-functioning-properly/#post-9130636) * Its displaying but no numbers like in the above IG image.i think this way is OK, as the sub headings (list items) are displaying without the numbers. * Thanks - This reply was modified 9 years ago by [Kingsley Felix](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iamkingsleyf/). * Plugin Author [Kevin Fodness](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kevinfodness/) * (@kevinfodness) * [9 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/list-not-functioning-properly/#post-9133159) * I looked at your original article again, and I see the root of the problem. You’re using the `start` parameter on the `ol` to determine which number should be displayed, which Apple News Format does not support: * “Attributes on your tags will be ignored. Exceptions are the href attribute on the `a` tag, and the data-anf-textstyle on all tags.” * [https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/General/Conceptual/Apple_News_Format_Ref/HTMLMarkupforAppleNewsFormat.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40015408-CH110-SW1](https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/General/Conceptual/Apple_News_Format_Ref/HTMLMarkupforAppleNewsFormat.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40015408-CH110-SW1) * If, instead of jumping in and out of ordered lists and using the `start` parameter to control the number that is displayed, you nested your content in the `li` tags, it should display properly in Apple News Format. - This reply was modified 9 years ago by [Kevin Fodness](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kevinfodness/). - This reply was modified 9 years ago by [Kevin Fodness](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kevinfodness/).
