.
This bullet list feature never has worked on this new forum platform and there is no answer to the question, "Why?"
.
That's just the way it is, apparently.
.
I have copied bullet lists from other websites and copied them here but clicking on "Preview" makes the bullets disappear.
.
If I don't use Preview and just click "Post" the bullets still disappear the same as with Preview.
.
Even more frustrating is how this software deletes all blank lines between text (block paragraph separation) and therefore I have resorted to putting a period between lines that I want to separate otherwise I have to go back and figure out where those are and add them after clicking "Preview" which is a lot of useless waste of time.

Thanks about the use of a period to separate paragraphs.

Appreciate your sharing. Thank you.

. Try adding a period before a number or * as I did above to create your own bullets.

. And instead of adding a period in the middle of a space, add it immediately before you start the first sentence of your paragraph as I have done here.
