In telegram i want bullet points , numbering and indentations but its not working

Question

I need to format my text in telegram. I try to use markdown language for the following text:

* Item
* Item

It prints the text as it is. It is supposed to print bullets instead.

I am following this link: https://wordpress.com/support/markdown-quick-reference/

This will not help you with indentations but will make nicely looking bullet points. Just copy and paste the bullet point UTF-8 character at the beginning of each line.

• first point
• second point
• etc

Tip: If you put two spaces behind each point, StackOverflow won't put them in one line and make a nice list instead – matthesinator Jul 26 '21 at 08:34

actually I had to put space `after` each line, but it totally worked, thanks! – Marek Jul 27 '21 at 04:38

Telegram's versions of MarkDown: Markdown & Markdown v2 don't support any sort of lists.

The only way to achieve this is using the pre-formatted code block with a 'custom' list which will allow any sort of indentation:

```
1) Item - 1
2) Item - 2
    A) Sub-Item - 1
```

Thanks for your answer. I've used circle bullets for my lists -( • •) – Dima Kozhevin Jul 16 '20 at 10:51
