 * Is there and easy way to eliminate the “bullets” in the ordered list?
 * Or do I need to go into the code and change something?
 * This would be a good option feature to add in the future.

 * bullets in lists are a style issue. all wordpress themes come with a stylesheet..
   its called style.css and it lives in your theme directory.
 * [http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=how+to+style+lists+with+css&btnG=Google+Search](http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=how+to+style+lists+with+css&btnG=Google+Search)
 * look through some of those links, and than edit your style sheet.
 * there’s also this:
 * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Styling_Lists_with_CSS](http://codex.wordpress.org/Styling_Lists_with_CSS)
 * and this:

 * Thank you for that. However, if you read my original question, your points do
   not address it is any way.
 * I don’t want to change the bullet style. I want to have a line break/return between
   items in the countdown timer list. NO BULLET.
 * In an earlier version of this plug-in one had to edit the code to achieve this.
   
   1) It would be a nice feature to be able to do this without editing the code.
   2) If I want to eliminate the bullet and just have a line break, does the original
   way to make this change still work?

 * > NO BULLET
 * and once again, thats a style issue.
 * I unfortuntely, didnt see that this was re: a specific plugin, blame it on the
   lack of cofee this morning — irrespective of that, bullets, or no bullets = style.

 * Is it possible to have a link to the plugin please?
 * If it is the one I’m thinking of, I believe just editing the code from
 * `<li> whatever it was here</li>`
 * to
 * `whatever it was here<br />`
 * should be sufficient.
    However, you should be aware that it **is** possible to
   style the bullets with CSS (as **whooami** said) so that no actual bullets appear
   even though it is still a list.
 * Perhaps [this tutorial](http://css.maxdesign.com.au/listutorial/02.htm) might
   be more straightforward.

 * Sure, that works, that stops making it a list, and since it wont be a **list**,
   it wont have **bullets**.
 * Cough.

 * With due respect, whooami, it’s not strictly a ‘list’ but it works for simple
   displays to achieve the same effect visually 🙂

 * huh?
 * I am not arguing with you.
 * lets clear up the confusion.
 * This is a semantically correct list:
 *     ```
       <ol>
       <li>thing</li>
       <li>thing</li>
       </ol>
       ```
   
 * this:
 * `thing <br />`
    `thing <br />`
 * is not.
 * My point in pointing out the difference was to illustrate that your method removes
   the bullets because list styling isnt applied to something thats not a list.
 * There isnt anything “wrong” with what you suggested.

 * My bad then, sorry 🙂 I misinterpreted the ‘cough’ at the end of your previous
   post.

 * The functionality you’re looking for already exists.
 * If you look under the “Display Format Options” tab, you’ll see “Display Format
   Prefix” and “Display Format Suffix”
 * Clear the beginning list element (`<li>`)from the prefix box and replace the 
   closing list element (`</li>`) with a line break (`<br />`) in the suffix box.

 * Shame on me for not checking my installation of Countdown Timer before writing
   rubbish 😉 Thanks for the info, Andrew1

 * [@fergbrain](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fergbrain/):
 * Got it. Works like a charm. I missed these new settings in the plug-in. I had
   been using a very old version for a long time till I just upgraded everything
   on one of our sites.
 * Thanks again.
