 * Hi
 * I have been searching the forums for advice on how to rectify (what I believe
   to be) two simple worpdpress page formatting issues. I have finished one site
   apart from two glitches so seek expert help.
 * I am running “FireFox 25.0 Mozilla Firefox for linux Mint mint – 1.0”. My site
   [http://www.paulnoonan.net](http://www.paulnoonan.net) has bullet points on the
   About Page (a static landing page). i don’t have any posts on this site – it 
   is a static resume site. I am with Site5.
 * i am using the free themezee Zeebiz card template – which is very good. but as
   a free subdcriber i don’t have access to the support forum and there is no publicly
   available info on how to solve the problems
 * They are:
 * > 1) With bullet points – I don’t know how to align 2nd line ‘overflow text’ 
   > under the 1st line of text, and not under the 1st line bullet. My ‘About Me’
   > front/landing page has this problem.
   > 2) I have snipped various logos of companies I have worked for and inserted
   > them as images on my site (see ‘Clients’ page), and other photos (see ‘Projects’
   > page). These images sometimes load properly onto my pages, sometimes not. It
   > is too unrelaibale to be acceptable on a resume page.
 * I have only ever built this WP site and used this theme, so if you can help can
   you please put into the simplest practical language what I need to do and give
   step by step instructions (eg if I need to insert code somewhere tell me what
   code, where to put it, where to find that file etc). I have searched quite in
   vain for guidance on what I think are simple questions.
 * MANY thanks.
 * Paul

 * Before adding/changing any code or css in your theme, it is highly advisable 
   that you [create and activate a child theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes).
   Then add this to your child theme style sheet:
 * .entry li {
    list-style-position: outside; margin-left: 1em; }
 * If you choose to skip the child theme, simply add the above code to the bottom
   of your style.css file in your theme folder where you installed WP (file path:
   root -> wp-content -> themes -> zeebizzcard -> style.css).
 * As far as the images go, I think that is a bandwidth issue or a server issue (
   most likely free server issue). A cache plugin _may_ help, but also may not. 
   The images loaded a little slowly the first time I accessed your site, but no
   troubles after that.
 * Personally, I did not see either of the issues your described in your post.

 * Hi DMBarber. Thanks for your speedy reply.
 * While I was seeking a permanent fix I decided to crop my text to put all of my
   bulleted info onto a single line, so I’d say this is why you didn’t see the text
   overwrapping problem. Sorry about that.
 * And re the images, I’m really pleased you could see them all. I have a shared
   hosting account on Site5.com (hosting is in Singapore – I am in Australia), and
   am using 3G internet at present – so what you suggest could indeed explain it.
   Potential employers won’t have the same bandwidth issues I could have on 3G- 
   so that’s great.
 * thanks for the suggested coding and methodology 🙂
 * Best regards
 * Paul

 * Hi,
    I have a problem with the second line of the bullet not aligning, as well,
   so I added this to the bottom of the style sheet:
 * .entry li {
    list-style-position: outside; margin-left: 1em; }
 * …but nothing has changed. I’m using the SmallBiz theme. Thoughts?
 * Thanks,
    Emily

 * You need to contact the people who gave you the theme for support.
