How can I add blank space at the beginning of a line?

    If you go to http://speaker.miloshapiro.com/milo-beyond-speeches/improventures , you’ll see what I’m trying to accomplish. Note that the wrapping on points 2,3, and 4 indents a little after a CNTL+ENTER to create a line break.

    I tried spaces, no luck.
    I tried inserting a bunch of   . This looked good but after publishing, they were stripped out of the HTML!
    In desperation, I finally added a bunch of underscores and colored them white. but I’ve heard rumor that doing white-on-white is cause for bots thinking you’re hiding keywords (not sure if that’s true, but regardless, this seems like a pretty lame solution for something that shouldn’t be hard)

    Don’t want to use the indent feature because that would throw off the line before it, too.

    Thanks!

    I thinks this is something you’re looking for: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6yeW8deJc6QVmcxU2F2cE54NFk/view?usp=sharing

    Instead of using paragraph tags (< p >) in the list, use ordered list for the purpose (< ol > & < li >). this’ll solve your problem.

    I hope this helps.

    Cheers 🙂

    Thanks for your reply! That’s great info to have (I missed that I even HAVE a numbering option thanks to WP-Edit) and definitely better than not having an option, but I still prefer my format indenting of the numbers (the one I was able to create with the white underscores) where I have the hanging indent on line two. I just like that look better. Surely this can’t be so hard. Feels like, in WP, I’m always having to settle for what defaults are OR I’m always looking to find a work-around 😉

    I’d still like to know if there’s just a way for ME to have control over inserting some blank spaces without WP erasing it.
