Title: Missing Link Bullets Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # Missing Link Bullets * Resolved [shakeb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shakeb/) * (@shakeb) * [19 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-link-bullets/) * Hi guys, I have searched but couldn’t find the solution to my problem. I had small bullets for all my links in the sidebar but they have gone now. The Bullets were something like >> but just very small. * I can’t find a way to get them back.

Basically, the CSS file was specifying that instead of using a bullet point, list items should have the » symbol for a bullet. * Sadly, IE doesn’t support generated content, so they don’t show up in that browser. That’s likely to be the case of the problem. * [Medizinische Abkuerzungen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stefansuedfeld/) * (@stefansuedfeld) * [19 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-link-bullets/#post-416572) * Did you change your theme? There are no images in your page (nor your css-file). * Thread Starter [shakeb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shakeb/) * (@shakeb) * [19 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-link-bullets/#post-416573) * Thanks Maerk. I am using Firefox 1.5.0.4 It used to show up until yesterday and now it doesn’t. 🙂 * Also haven’t made any changes to the stylesheet in the links or the sidebar section. * Thread Starter [shakeb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shakeb/) * (@shakeb) * [19 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-link-bullets/#post-416576) * NO I haven’t changed my theme except for adding some code in index.php which was to add the print this page link. I installed the wp-print plugin. I removed that link anyway. Also, I changed the positioning of the links. For example I have shifted the pages section down instead of it being the first one on the top. * [Medizinische Abkuerzungen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stefansuedfeld/) * (@stefansuedfeld) * [19 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-link-bullets/#post-416659) * From another Thread: * [stc-suncoast.org](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-link-bullets/stc-suncoast.org?output_format=md) * The img are defined as a background-img in the css-file. But I didn’t see anything in your source. * Thread Starter [shakeb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shakeb/) * (@shakeb) * [19 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-link-bullets/#post-416834) * Hmm. There is no backgournd-img in the CSS file. I dont quite get that, I have just updated the style.css with the default installation file but nothing has changed. It is not a CSS issue I think. * [Medizinische Abkuerzungen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stefansuedfeld/) * (@stefansuedfeld) * [19 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-link-bullets/#post-416836) * Wrong css file? * Do you still have the old one? * Thread Starter [shakeb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shakeb/) * (@shakeb) * [19 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-link-bullets/#post-416851) * No I don’t have the old CSS file sorry. I just went in Theme Editor under pasted the default styles.css which was exactly the same. * If there was a problem with the CSS file it should have been fixed after i replaced it with original file. * [Medizinische Abkuerzungen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stefansuedfeld/) * (@stefansuedfeld) * [19 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-link-bullets/#post-416855) * Ok you are right. But I do not have the answer (yet?). * Your style.css contains * .entry ul li:before, #sidebar ul ul li:before { content: “\BB \20”; } * That should display the letters, but it doesn’t. * I do not know why, if you change it into after it works. * Perhaps I will have a deeper look later. * [moshu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/moshu/) * (@moshu) * [19 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-link-bullets/#post-416865) * In the original the code is: `.entry ul li:before, #sidebar ul ul li:before { content: "0BB 020"; } * [moshu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/moshu/) * (@moshu) * [19 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-link-bullets/#post-416866) * This forum is crazy… it is eating one zero 🙂 00BB 0020 * Thread Starter [shakeb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shakeb/) * (@shakeb) * [19 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-link-bullets/#post-416901) * LOL ok Looks like nothing will work. * > .entry ul li:before, #sidebar ul ul li:before { > content: “\BB \20”; } * .entry ul li:before, #sidebar ul ul li:before { content: “\0BB \020”; } * Didn’t work. 00BB 0020 Didn’t work as well. * [maerk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maerk/) * (@maerk) * [19 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-link-bullets/#post-416912) * Try slashes before the 00BB 0020? * Thread Starter [shakeb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shakeb/) * (@shakeb) * [19 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-link-bullets/#post-416927) * Didn’t Work. 🙁 I have a funny feeling that it is some other silly issue and we are busy doing something else. * [yosemite](https://wordpress.org/support/users/yosemite/) * (@yosemite) * [19 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-link-bullets/#post-416929) * Change this: `.entry ul li:before, #sidebar ul ul li:before { content: "0BB 020"; } * To this: `.entry ul li:before, #sidebar ul li ul li:before { content: "0BB 020";} * NOTE: Just add ‘li’ after ‘#sidebar ul’. 0BB 020 is not displayed correctly here, blah-blah-blah.
