;; displays the same as ;

DokuWiki Release 2020-07-29 "Hogfather" or 2022.07.31 "Igor" (makes no difference)
Extended List syntax 2016-07-26
Template: DokuWiki standard or sprintDoc (makes no difference)
Hosted on OpenBSD 7.1 stable amd64, using OpenBSD httpd(8), PHP-FPM 7.4.30 (or PHP_FPM 8.0.22 for Igor, makes no difference)
Wrap Plugin installed and active (latest version, 2022-08-10)

Using the following test I could not see any difference between the two variants:

===== Description list (compact term) =====

  ; Term 1 — Let's add some extremely long additional text to the term of the item to see how this is handled for display purposes by the Extended List Syntax plugin on our DokuWiki test page
  : Definition 1 — Let's add some extremely long additional text to the definition of the item to see how this is handled for display purposes by the Extended List Syntax plugin on our DokuWiki test page
  ; Term 2
  : Definition 2


===== Description list (wide term) =====

  ;; Term 1 — Let's add some extremely long additional text to the term of the item to see how this is handled for display purposes by the Extended List Syntax plugin on our DokuWiki test page
  : Definition 1 — Let's add some extremely long additional text to the definition of the item to see how this is handled for display purposes by the Extended List Syntax plugin on our DokuWiki test page
  ;; Term 2
  : Definition 2

Did I misunderstand the purpose of the ;; vs. ; syntax?

I do see the HTML attribute class="compact“ when using the ;; form, but there seems to be no CSS to actually change the display properties when I use a web inspector in the browser.

I am using the default plugin configuration:

• plugin»extlist»use_plugin_css: true
• plugin»extlist»dl_class: empty
• plugin»extlist»ol_class: empty
• plugin»extlist»ul_class: empty

Thx!
