tinymce is adding extra carriage returns that adds extra bullets
10:21 12 Sep 2026

I am using the basic tinymce (free) and I am experiencing an odd behavior when using bullets and ordered lists.

If I enter

  1. some value

  2. another value

when submitted the values that end up in the db are

  1. some value
  2. another value
    1. 
      

      but is is showing in the textarea

      1. some value

      2. another value

      Any idea how I can get rid of the extra carriage returns?
