<p>We use Markdown for formatting in Lighthouse and Tender. The new
paragraph you have causes Markdown to restart numbering. Even if
you used all numeral 3's there it would behave the same.
Example</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>This sentence begins with (3)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>This sentence begins with (3)</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p>There are two possible solutions but they depend on the function
of the new paragraph between numbers. If it is a second paragraph
of text under item 2, then if you indent it Markdown knows to
continue on with the proper count.</p>
<p>If it is a regular paragraph just being used in the content, you
can number all of your items like so</p>
<pre>
<code>1.. This sentence begins with (1)
2.. This sentence begins with (2)
this is an extra paragraph break btw. this and the next sentence
3.. This sentence begins with (3)</code>
</pre>
<p>Which should produce like so:</p>
<p>1.. This sentence begins with (1)</p>
<p>2.. This sentence begins with (2)</p>
<p>this is an extra paragraph break btw. this and the next
sentence</p>
<p>3.. This sentence begins with (3)</p>
<p>The extra period interferes with the Markdown parser so it
doesn't recognize the numbered list.</p>
<p>Let me know if you have any questions.</p>
<p>Thanks,<br>
