My WP theme doesn’t allow me to do lists :(

Darn. I just discovered that my theme doesn’t allow me to create ordered or non-ordered lists (even though I write the code right, the UL and li for the unordered list and the items. This theme is a variant on Deviant Art. Any ideas as to why this is happening? It is VERY frustrating, I might add.

Hey Raul… There’s probably a setting in the styles.css. I could take a look at it for you if you want. I need to run out to go to my yoga workshop, but will be back this evening.

FWIW, this does show up as an unordered list in the feed view of your entry.

As christine suggested, there’s a style in your css that’s telling all the lists to display no bullet images.

If you want to correct it, I’d add something like this to the stylesheet:
.post ul { list-style-type:square; }

You could get even geekier and put your own image as the bullet mark. Not your physical image (unless you want of course) but whatever graphic you want as a bullet you could use.

It just takes a bit more CSS to do.

If you’re still having issues let me know and I can look through my CSS (since one of my sites uses the same theme) and I can email you what to do :)
