Hello,

I have a bug with lists in Easyblog with the composer. Indenting one is working, but if you decrease indent and then indent again, things start to become messy, as it also indent the element below the one you're indenting. Here's a video :



Initially found on my website, reproduced on the Easyblog demo.
Hello,

This is quite tricky to fix because a lot of possibilities that other users will do/expect. Fixing one part could lead to introducing other issue or abnormal behavior. I will add this in our issue tracker and see how we can improve this.

Hello,

I have checked the behavior and for me personally (and the rest of the developers here), this is correct behavior as the text is originally is a <UL> tag element. Once one of the element is indented, that element is considered a child of the top element. And when the top element is indented, the child would also be indented even more. However, there is no correct behavior to satisfy all parties. I will bring this to our developer and see if we could come out with a better solution. Thanks for reporting by the way.

I understand your reasoning, but I was thinking it was wrong because when it does happen, the listing starts to be a bit messy. Let me show you with a video :



It's from the demo website. I know it's a bit of "trying to trick the system", but I often use lists with several level of indent, and it's not rare to have that kind of bugs. Once the element is considered as a child for example, decrease its indent will create a new line, that is not something I wanted to do. And the problem is that I have to delete the whole list to get back to a normal behavior :/

Edit : Wrong video
