Table of Contents
Ever stared at a Carrd list and wished you could just nudge those stubborn bullet points a little to the right? You're not alone.
Indented lists are the unsung heroes of clear, organized content. They tidy up your information and spark joy in your readers' eyes. Yet in Carrd there’s no option to do this with the List element.
Fear not, as we’ve learned of not just one, but two sneaky ways to add indented lists to your Carrd site. These tricks aren't well-known and can be total game-changers for organizing page content.
Let's dive into these hidden tips and transform your Carrd content.
This is another tip from Jason, who runs Plugins For Carrd
Option 1 – Using a List element
The method is based on stacking multiple List elements, so some of them can be indented.
- Add new List element, and add list content:
- Duplicate the List element and place it below the first one
- In the second List element, go to Appearance then find Indent, to adjust
- With the second List element, you could change the bullets to Circles, to distinguish the indent level further:
- To continue with the top level of bullets, duplicate the first List element again and position it below the second List
Option 2 – Using a Text element
For indented lists in a Text element, there’s a different workaround and you only need one Text element.
- First, add your Text element and list content (with manual bullets)
- Use the markdown syntax
\sas a non-breaking space, at the beginning of the lines you want to indent (you can use multiples of the syntax for more space)
- You can’t switch to circles for bullets in this version, but you can actually add any character you want as the bullet:
There you have it. Two simple yet powerful ways to break free from Carrd‘s list limitations.
Happy list-making, and may your bullet points always be perfectly aligned 😉
