What have you defined in your org setup at the start of the tile.  In
particular, this line in the example presentation on Worg is crucial:

#+OPTIONS:   H:3 num:t toc:t \n:nil @:t ::t |:t ^:t -:t f:t *:t <:t

specifically the H:3 bit that tells org to use up to 3 levels of
headings or else level headlines get treated like lists, as far as I
remember.

In any case, can you send me an example that doesn't work that I can
try?
