*Once I click into the rich text field within the Webflow CMS (to add images, for example), the entire space that is being reserved for the blank bullet points disappears. If I then publish that update, the bullet points have been deleted from the live, published web page.
All other (supported) rich text content appears fine (bold, headers, links, quotes).
I’ve tested this through Airtable Scripts (inputting HTML directly into the Airtable text field) and through a Make/Integromat Markdown to HTML conversion (inputting rich text directly into the Airtable text field, then having Make convert it on the way to Webflow).
This is a known quirk with HTML being set via the Webflow API instead of being composed directly into the Webflow Editor. For some reason, the Webflow Editor doesn’t always display it correctly.
I’ve seen it 100s of times with my customers when they use PowerImporter to sync Airtable to Webflow. But, since they are using Airtable as their single source of truth, it doesn’t matter how the Webflow Editor displays the HTML.
There is a forum post here somewhere within the last 3 to 6 months regarding a solution for this. If I recall correctly you need to wrap the <ul> in a div. There may be some attributes as well.
The general approach I use is;
Create a test record with the value I want ( bullet lists, etc ).
API GET it.
API CREATE another one with the same exact content
If it worked, I know the API supports it. Now my job is to construct my input date to match the HTML rules I can identify in the sample.
