@FMCUSystemAdmins , thank you for opening a bug report. I was unable to reproduce the reported behavior on NetBox v4.2.5 (see attached screenshot). Please re-confirm the reported behavior on the current stable release and adjust your post above as necessary. Remember to provide detailed steps that someone else can follow using a clean installation of NetBox to reproduce the issue. Remember to include the steps taken to create any initial objects or other data.

Apologies @jnovinger, didn't realize the versioning was in the 4.2's already. We had updated to the latest of the 4.1's prior to submitting this.

Will get updated to latest 4.2 release and I'm sure it will start working like you said.

@jnovinger, we updated to 4.2.5 and it is still not interpreting the markdown correctly. Asterisks nor hyphens work.

@FMCUSystemAdmins I can confirm that the following Markdown renders lists as expected:

A list

* Foo
* Bar
* Baz

And with hyphens

- Foo
- Bar
- Baz

You can confirm that this works on the demo instance as well. Please share the exact markup you're using.

@jeremystretch and @jnovinger, disregard. Just found out that I had to put a newline after a colon that was right before the list for it to interpret correctly. Thank you.
