XF 2.1 BBCode Ordered List Alphabetical

[Brad L]

How do you create a list in the editor that's ordered alphabetically?

[LIST=a]
[*] hello
[*] world
[/LIST]

• hello
• world

That isn't something that is possible in HTML natively so it isn't something that would be easy to achieve using the basic BB code controls. You would need to either process the list items and sort them in PHP or implement some sort of JavaScript solution to do it on the fly.

It works fine in html. Perhaps you thought I meant ordering of the actual values?

<ol type="A">
  <li>Coffee</li>
  <li>Tea</li>
  <li>Milk</li>
</ol>

I think I worded my question poorly. I just want a list that looks like this:

A. Coffee
B. Tea
C. Milk

Instead of this:

1. Coffee
2. Tea
3. Milk

Only numbered ordered lists are possible.
