# Post Sidebar Shortcode

 * I am having a problem adding “bullet list” to my “Recent Posts” side bar.
 * I went thru the instructions:
    1) disabled “Post” page in SETTINGS>READING (saved)
   2) added shortcode _[pld\_archive\_list list\_style=”ul”]_ to my main “Posts”
   page (I used the Shortcode Widget in Elementor Pro) 3) re-enabled “Post” page
   in SETTINGS>READING (saved)
 * When I open that Post page, the Recent Posts sidebar is still not showing a bullet
   in front of the Recent Posts list items
 * What am I missing?
 * Thanks!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fpost-sidebar-shortcode%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@mothersbookworx](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mothersbookworx/)
 * Thanks for the detailed response.
 * The above setting within WordPress ‘READING’ section is only needed when we want
   to use Posts List Designer by Category plugin shortcode in blog page.
 * You are displaying plugin shortcode in a sidebar and it will work for you. Just
   make sure you have added post within your site.
 * Posts List Designer by Category plugin lite version works with WordPress default
   post only.
 * Please refer below screenshot for default WordPress post section.
