I'm trying to see my markdown nested list items rendered with corresponding indentation when viewed in a browser live from the Bitbucket pages. But I can't figure out how it works even when using their examples (updated):
* Item 1
* Item 2
* Item 3 * Item 3a * Item 3b * Item 3cIt ignores indentation for items 3a-c:
I want it to look like this (syntax works perfectly fine on SE and Github):
Their list in list example is particularly unacceptable:
1. Step 1
2. Step 2
3. Step 3 * Item 3a * Item 3b * Item 3cHere's a repo I set up just for this.

Use 4 spaces.
# Unordered list
* Item 1
* Item 2
* Item 3 * Item 3a * Item 3b * Item 3c
# Ordered list
1. Step 1
2. Step 2
3. Step 3 1. Step 3.1 2. Step 3.2 3. Step 3.3
# List in list
1. Step 1
2. Step 2
3. Step 3 * Item 3a * Item 3b * Item 3cHere's a screenshot from that updated repo:
Thanks @Waylan, your comment was exactly right.
94 spaces do the trick even inside definition list:
Endpoint
: `/listAgencies`
Method
: `GET`
Arguments
: * `level` - bla-bla. * `withDisabled` - should we include disabled `AGENT`s. * `userId` - bla-bla.I am documenting API using BitBucket Wiki and Markdown proprietary extension for definition list is most pleasing (MD's table syntax is awful, imaging multiline and embedding requirements...).
Possibilities
- It is possible to nest a bulleted-unnumbered list into a higher numbered list.
- But in the bulleted-unnumbered list the automatically numbered list will not start: Its is not supported.
- To start a new numbered list after a bulleted-unnumbered one, put a piece of text between them, or a subtitle: A new numbered list cannot start just behind the bulleted: The interpreter will not start the numbering.
In practice
- Dog
- German Shepherd - with only a single space ahead. 2. Belgian Shepherd - max 4 spaces ahead.
- Number in front of a line interpreted as a "numbering bullet", so making the indentation.
* ..and ignores the written digit: Places/generates its own, in compliance with the structure.
* So it is OK to use only just "1" ones, to get your numbered list.
* Or whatever integer number, even of more digits: The list numbering will continue by increment ++1.
* However, the first item in the numbered list will be kept, so the first leading will usually be the number "1".
- Malinois - 5 spaces makes 3rd level already.
- MalinoisB - 5 spaces makes 3rd level already.
- Groenendael - 8 spaces makes 3rd level yet too.
- Tervuren - 9 spaces for 4th level - Intentionaly started by "55".
- TervurenB - numbered by "88", in the source code.
- Malinois - 5 spaces makes 3rd level already.
- Cat
- Siberian; a. SiberianA - problem reproduced: Letters (i.e. "a" here) not recognized by the interpreter as "numbering".
- No matter, that it is indented to its separated line in its source code: The indentation is ignored here. 2. Siamese
- a. so written manually as a workaround misusing bullets, unnumbered list.
This worked for me in Bitbucket Cloud.
Entering this:
* item a
* item b
** item b1
** item b2
* item3I've got this:
Even a single space works
...Just open this answer for edit to see it.
Nested lists, deeper levels: ---- leave here an empty row * first level A item - no space in front the bullet character * second level Aa item - 1 space is enough * third level Aaa item - 5 spaces min * second level Ab item - 4 spaces possible too * first level B item
Nested lists, deeper levels:
- first level A item - no space in front the bullet character
- second level Aa item - 1 space is enough
- third level Aaa item - 5 spaces min
- second level Ab item - 4 spaces possible too
- second level Aa item - 1 space is enough
first level B item
Nested lists, deeper levels: ...Skip a line and indent eight spaces. (as said in the editor-help, just on this page) * first level A item - no space in front the bullet character * second level Aa item - 1 space is enough * third level Aaa item - 5 spaces min * second level Ab item - 4 spaces possible too * first level B item
