Dividing numbered lists into columns
Hi. I want to create a numbered list of items but divide it into 2 columns. Two problems with this
1) I don't know how to restart the 'numbering' in the second column unless I just number them manually
2) When I have the list in two columns, numbered manually, and then pull up the site on a mobile device, the columns appear one below the other, which is fine except there's an extra space between them that I don't want.
Is there anyway to 'restart numbering' so you can break a list into columns?
And, what's the best way to make sure the columns look right on a mobile device?
Thanks.

if you want it to stack correctly on mobile, you'd like to do a single item in each column of a one columns element, then do a single item in each column of a new columns element, and number them manually. It would be something like this:
_______________________
| 1. Name. |. Content. |
|__________|___________|
_______________________
| 2. Name. |. Content. |
|__________|___________|
_______________________
| 3. Name. |. Content. |
|__________|___________|

I think that's what I've been doing (having manually-numbered items 1-10 in the first column and then items 11-20 in the second, adjacent column. The problem is that there's still a space between the columns on mobile, and the format of the numbering is different than the rest of the page (since I had to do it manually instead of using automatic numbering). I'm attaching screenshots . Please let me know if I'm misunderstanding you.

We add some padding underneath each column on mobile. It might be possible to add some custom CSS code to stop it on that particular page. Could you post a link to this page on your published site? We have some members here in Community that are familiar with CSS and could help.

Hmm...
doing something like this might work. Put this in an Embed Code element directly before your columns element:
<style>
div.paragraph
{
padding: 0px;
}
</style>
Then put this in an embed code element directly after the columns:
<style>
div.paragraph
{
padding: 0 0 1.5em;
}
</style>
That should make it so it only removes the padding for those specific columns elements.

I'm not sure that worked. Do you mean 'before/after' as in "above/below' the columns, or adjacent? Before/after just one column or the whole set of columns?

I think before and after the set of columns is probably easier to manage. Oh, one small tweak:
- change "padding: 0px;" to: padding: 0px !important;
- change "padding: 0 0 1.5em;" to: padding: 0 0 1.5em !important;
