Ordered list: force manual number

Hello,
I like the fact that an ordered list (numbered list) is automatically created and numbers are growing automatically (Redirect). If I write:
1. text
1. text

We’ll see

  1. text
  2. text

Our use case is that we use these ordered lists to answer every single points in a specific thread. For example:

  1. What’s the day today?
  2. What is the colour of Mars?
  3. What’s your name?

Somebody could reply:

  1. Monday
  2. Red
  3. Tom

The problem is that somebody might want to reply only to 1. and 3. , not on 2.:
1. Monday
3. Tom

Currently, it’s not possible, we’ll see:

  1. Monday
  2. Tom

Our workaround is either to write 2 messages:

  1. Monday

and then:
3. Tom

Or to include an empty line:

  1. Monday
  2. Tom

Is there an easier/cleaner solution? Maybe an option to disable the force the manual numbering for example? Like:

/force-order
1. Monday
3. Tom

In fact, we found the solution :slight_smile: I should leave 2 lines blank between 2 numbers:

1. Monday


3. Tom
