There is no support for definition lists at this time. We'll be working on it for V3.

Any update on this in the last 5 years?

Hi there,

I see that definition list (DL tags) never made it into version 3 nor even the latest version 4. Was there ever going to be support added for this? I've been searching everywhere and see a handful of posts here and there requesting this, but never any solutions.

Thank you!

It's been added a while ago.

It's been added a while ago. In the latest version the tags are replaced with <p> if you don't properly customize Advanced Content Filter. For a quick fix add this code to your config.js file:

CKEDITOR.config.allowedContent = true

Can't see it!

Hi there, I've been trying to figure out how to do this as well and whilst there's an abundance of info available on CKEditor generally, there's very little around use of definition lists. Ideally what I want to be able to do is to highlight the following in CKEditor (shown in plain text so can see html structure):

<p><a href="http://blah">hyperlink to blah</a>description of blah</p>
<p><a href="http://blah2">hyperlink to blah 2</a>description of blah 2</p>

and by selecting a style or toolbar button, covert it to this:

<dl>
   <dt><a href="http://blah">hyperlink to blah</a></dt>
      <dd>description of blah</dd>
   <dt><a href="http://blah2">hyperlink to blah 2</a><dt>
      <dd>description of blah 2</dd>
</dl>

Is this possible? For info we're using CKEditor for Drupal version 7.0-1.12
