bullet list stops working in recent builds

Details

Hi there, since a few builds ago, the bullet list stops working in my documentation. I am not exactly sure when did this first occur.

This affects all the pages (index and all other pages). In the local build, the bullet lists are rendered ok (see figures below).

• Read the Docs project URL: https://pyod.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html#
• Build URL (if applicable): https://readthedocs.org/projects/pyod/builds/13979249/
• Read the Docs username (if applicable): yuezhao9210

Expected Result

A description of what you wanted to happen

The correctly rendered local build:

Actual Result

A description of what actually happened: the bullet points are incorrectly rendered as new lines only without any bullets.

The current online version:

Thanks a lot for the help.

Hi @yzhao062 ! You would have to pin docutils<0.17. This is a known issue readthedocs/sphinx_rtd_theme#1115, and the latest version of sphinx-rtd-theme takes care of this pinning.

Closing this in favor of readthedocs/sphinx_rtd_theme#1115, hope this helps!
