WordPress.org

No your looking to edit your css for your theme. :)

WordPress does not add "style" to your blog.

li {
list-style-type: square;
color: #F29900;
margin: 0 0 0px 0;
padding: 0 0 0 0px;
}

needs to be:

li {
list-style-type: none;
color: #F29900;
margin: 0 0 0px 0;
padding: 0 0 0 0px;
}

Well, if I did that, then the <li> tag would still exsist somewhere in the script, but the square just wouldn't be on the page anymore. I actually like it everywhere else on the page, I just don't want an 'li' marker right next to the word 'Blogroll'.

than you need to tinker with your CSS .. the way you are trying to do it is ass backwards, trust me. That's what stylesheets are for.

add this to the stylesheet for your current theme:

li.linkcat {
list-style-type: none;
color: #F29900;
margin: 0 0 0px 0;
padding: 0 0 0 0px;
}

Thanks, I tried that code out that you posted. It got rid of the little square next to the word 'Blogroll', but the word was still in it's same location... it just didn't have a square next to it. If I can get rid of the <li> tag completely wherever it exsists, then only that will solve my problem.

in your sidebar.php you will find:

<?php get_links(-1, '<li>', '</li>', ' - '); ?>

the <li></li> tags are removed by editing that template tag.

have a nice day.

Actually, he's probably using get_links_list() in some fashion. Given that he's using WordPress 2.1.3, he should switch to using the newer wp_list_bookmarks() instead.

This will probably do what he wants:
wp_list_bookmarks('category_before=&category_after=');

He should also upgrade to WordPress 2.2 due to the 2.1.3 security issue.

I took your advice and upgraded to v2.2 and it went perfectly. Almost, *too* perfectly. Rarely does anything work that well. :/ *waits for sky to fall*

I finally got it after I upgraded to 2.2. In bookmark_template.php, I changed:

// Display the category name
			echo '	<li id="linkcat-' . $cat->cat_ID . '" class="linkcat"><h2>' . $cat->cat_name . "</h2>\n\t<ul>\n";
			// Call get_links() with all the appropriate params
			get_links($cat->cat_ID, '<li>', "</li>", "\n", true, 'name', false);

			// Close the last category
			echo "\n\t</ul>\n</li>\n";
		}
	}
}

to

// Display the category name
			echo '	<id="linkcat-' . $cat->cat_ID . '" class="linkcat"><h2>' . $cat->cat_name . "</h2>\n\t<ul>\n";
			// Call get_links() with all the appropriate params
			get_links($cat->cat_ID, '<li>', "</li>", "\n", true, 'name', false);

			// Close the last category
			echo "\n\t</ul>\n\n";
		}
	}
}

No, no, that's a really really wrong way to do that.

Try what I said before, change your THEME to use wp_list_bookmarks() instead. No need to edit any core files.
