Solution using enumitem package

1. If you do not have the version 3 of the enumitem.sty installed, then download enumitem.sty manually and place it into your project’s folder.
2. For itemize lists, add the following to the preamble of your document:

\usepackage{enumitem}
\setlistdepth{9}

\setlist[itemize,1]{label=$\bullet$}
\setlist[itemize,2]{label=$\bullet$}
\setlist[itemize,3]{label=$\bullet$}
\setlist[itemize,4]{label=$\bullet$}
\setlist[itemize,5]{label=$\bullet$}
\setlist[itemize,6]{label=$\bullet$}
\setlist[itemize,7]{label=$\bullet$}
\setlist[itemize,8]{label=$\bullet$}
\setlist[itemize,9]{label=$\bullet$}

\renewlist{itemize}{itemize}{9}

For the other list types this has to be adapted.

Troubleshooting help

• if you get “! Undefined control sequence. \setlistdepth”, the version of enumitem.sty that LaTeX uses is older then version 3.
• if you still get the “Too deeply nested” error, then the renewlist command is missing for the list type you use
• if you get “Package enumitem Error: Undefined label.”, then the label for one of the levels was not definied with the \setlist[itemize,$LEVEL] ... command
