This is in the theme’s stylesheet. It’s a very simple fix.
Here is the default Evolve style.css setting:
ul {
list-style: none;
padding: 0;
}
If you want bullets, you could add this custom css:
.post-content ul {
list-style: disc outside;
}
Then all unordered lists you create in the body of posts will have the standard black dot bullet.
I think that the default should be like on wordpress editor or like in evolve 3.8.4. Now the list in front is empty and the user cant understand that there is a list. I m sure Romik will fix in theme and no need of custom css.
@abigailm thanks a lot!
@nickpapag I designed that list as it is, it’s not an issue. If it’s not problem, please use the Additional CSS which can do what you need. I am not planning to add it in the next releases.
@nickpapag — I think that @romik84 could have helped us all by preparing a list of specific styling changes between version 3.84 and 3.9x — but other than that I think the choice to eliminate the bullet is a legitimate styling choice.
The problem is that for every designer who wants the bullet points, there is someone else who wants to get rid of them.
In 3.84, the default style sheet contained this specification:
ul,
ul ul,
ul ul ul {
list-style-type: none;
list-style-image: url("assets/images/list-style.png");
padding: 0;
}
So that called to an image that was included in the earlier versions but is no longer part of the program. I think it was very small, light gray, carat style image (>)- not the round filled-in disc style which I provided.
So yes… this is all very frustrating, but you will find that the themes style.css file is very well organized and even has a detailed table of contents, so for common elements like lists it is very easy to figure out what the default specification for anything that you would like to change.
I’d note that I have a love/hate relationship with the Evolve theme and I don’t recommend it to people who want a set-and-forget type of website. The value of the theme is in its many options for customization– much more than you will find in most free themes — but it is really best suited for designers who like tinkering with their code.
But I do think that your school site is very nicely done and that you are also very capable of tweaking things as needed, with a little help from others. Which is why I love free themes with a large user base and public support forums — especially for coding & customizations to an underlying theme.
@romik84 Thanks for info romik. This is not an issue. I thought that this was an obvious “must have” option. No problem at all. Keep going with the good work.
@abigailm I’m impressed with the way you explain everything.Thank u!
