List

A List shows short items one under another, each with a bullet, a number or an icon in front. Use it for the benefits of a membership, the steps of a process or what an event includes. You type the items on the canvas, as Edit text on the canvas describes.

You can add a List to a Section or a Post Content section, and inside a Collection, a Group, a No Results block or a Paywall. In the block picker it sits under Common. Click a List on the canvas to select it. The canvas toolbar appears over it, and its settings open in the right sidebar. In the tables below, "the + menu" is the + beside the name of a group of settings, such as General.

General

Setting What it does
List Type What sits in front of each item: None (nothing, and no indent), Unordered (a bullet, the default), Ordered (a number or a letter) or Icon.
Style Shows for Unordered and Ordered. For bullets: Disc (the default), Circle or Square. For numbers: Numbers (the default), Letters (a, b, c), Roman (i, ii, iii), Upper Letters (A, B, C) or Upper Roman (I, II, III).
Icon Shows when List Type is Icon. The icon in front of every item, a check mark by default. Click it to pick another in the icon picker.

Spacing

Setting What it does
Gap The space between the items, Tiny (8 px) by default.

The text of a List follows the Text style in Styles. A List has no Typography or Colors group. Its size changes with that style, as Text styles and font sizes describes, and its color follows the color scheme of the section or Group around it.

A List also has Width from Layout settings, and the Display settings and Advanced settings of every block. The List entry in the Blocks panel sets the look of every List at once, as How block variants and formats work explains.

List Item

A new List starts with three List Items, and holds 1 to 25.

  • To add an item, put the cursor at the end of an item and press Enter. To end the list, press Enter again in the empty item.
  • To remove an item, delete its text, then press ⌫ (Backspace) in the empty item.
  • To move an item, drag its row in the left sidebar, or select it and use the up and down arrows on the canvas toolbar.

A List Item has no settings of its own beyond Width, Display and Advanced. Use Display to hide one item on phones or show it only to members.
