So, I found that the CKEditor, as configured in a clean install of DNN 9.6.1 was cleaning up some class tags for me.

Specifically  class="myclass" was being stripped from ul tags.

In the CKEditor settings, changing AllowedContent from talse to true "fixed" this issue.  But, I have not idea if this was a good idea or not.  Wondering if there are other implications of having done this ...

Well, that allows all content so it depends on who's managing the content.
If it's only you that's not an issue, when there are external "editors" it might be.

In that case it's better to add a rule to allow classes using ExtraAllowedContent.

I think ul(*) should do it (not tested)
