 * Hi All,
    This seems to be an issue that a few people have had. I’ve tried some
   of the suggestions I’ve been able to find on this forum and nothing has seemed
   to work.
 * I was editing a bulleted list of links on my website ([http://ourheights.org/mainstreetbiz/](http://ourheights.org/mainstreetbiz/)
   under “Meeting Minutes”) in the WP editor. They are visible in the visual editor,
   however, when I published the page and viewed it in my browser, the bullets were
   no longer visible.
 * I searched through my style.css file and switched a few ul tags from ‘none’ to‘
   disc’ with no luck.
 * The weird thing is, bullets are still working on other pages such as this one:
   [http://ourheights.org/about/#minutes](http://ourheights.org/about/#minutes)
 * Any ideas on what might be causing this? Thanks!

 * The CSS is causing this. It is the ONLY thing that can “style” elements on your
   page.
 * Your css is declaring this twice :
 * .entry-content ul {
    list-style-type: none !important; margin: 0 !important; 
   padding: 0 !important; } .entry-content ul { list-style-type: none !important;
   margin: 0 !important; padding: 0 !important; }

 * You have this code:
 *     ```
       .entry-content ul {
           list-style-type: none !important;
       }
       ```
   
 * This is forcing your lists, within your post content, to never display a bullet
   because of the `!important` declaration, this code is being added inline and 
   I can’t seem to override it, you can try adding this to your [Child Theme](https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
   style.css file, or using a [Custom CSS](http://www.mhthemes.com/blog/wordpress-plugins-to-implement-code/#simple-custom-css)
   plugin.
 *     ```
       .entry-content ul {
           list-style-type: disc !important;
       }
       ```
   
 * Let me know how you get on.

 * Thanks for your quick responses! I tried adding that code to the child theme 
   style.css with no luck.
 * I have no idea where it’s pulling in that code from, as I can’t find it anywhere
   in the parent or child style.css files.
 * It seems only certain pages are affected, which is really weird. I added a bulleted
   list of text successfully on the about page, but a lot of the project pages are
   having the same issue.
 * I will look into using a Custom CSS plugin,

 * It’s being added inline, within the code itself (I can’t seem to locate it), 
   it’s not coming from a stylesheet and because it’s using `!important` makes it
   difficult to override.

 * It looks to coming in from BX slider:
 * /*//////////////////////slider thunbnail styles start///////////////////////////*/
 *  .bx-wrapper .bx-controls-direction a.disabled {
    display: ; } .bx-viewport {
   height: 100px !important; -webkit-transform: translatez(0); } .entry-content 
   a{ border-bottom: none !important; } .entry-content li{ margin:0px !important;
   padding: 0px !important; } .entry-content ul{ list-style-type:none !important;
   margin: 0px !important; padding: 0px !important; }
