    This is embarrassing, but I simply can't get rid of

  2. bullets in the sidebar in the theme I am working with.
    I have given every occurrence of
  3. in my sidebar styles definitions list-style-type:none; , but the bullets remain! Anyone?

    Do we have to play "Guess The Site Url" first? ;-)

    Sorry, I forgot to enloce the li here...
    Esmi, this is on my test server, my local xammp.
    My hope was that someone else once had the same damned problem and some amazing solutions...
    This one is really tricky, since none of the li are left without the list-style-type:none;

    Is this a custom theme or are you modifying an existing theme? If it's the latter, have you checked through the stylesheet for any references to to the :before pseudo class or the content property?

    This is custom from the start of.
    I finish my content style before the sidebar starts, so it is not there..and by no way in the sidebars, nor in my functions.php.

    Can you drop a copy of sidebar.php into the WordPress pastebin?

    Are these bullets the browser defaults for <li> or are they showing a custom bullet image that you've specified for the content?

    Thank you Esmi, I dropped it in, both of the sidebars.
    The bullets are Browser defaults, I really dont like bullets and prefer other means than lists.

    Esmi: it might look that the sidebars ignore their styles. It's night and I am nearly passed out, so I'll keep on looking tomorrow. This is a mystery,

    Esmi! I solved the problem, by the soultion found here:
    http://wiki.onehertz.com/WordPress/Mandigo/FAQ/How_do_I_get_rid_of_the_star_shaped_bullets

    I removed all my sidebar styles from my stylesheets and placed the different sidebar styles into each sidebar.php
    And then everything became delicious!!!

    Look to this solutin those of you creating your own themes with several sidebars. Good luck :-)
