There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

CSS for Widget list items not working (bullets)

I was using an earlier fix that enabled me to have circles, discs, or squares on list items in widgets for WP 2.8 and Atahualpa 3.4.2. The site is www.crtrail.org/CRT-design.

HTML Code:
div.widget ul li a:link,
div.widget ul li a:visited,
div.widget ul li a:active,
div.widget ul li a:hover {
border-left: 0 !important;
padding-left: 0 !important;
}
div.widget ul {
/* for other styles, try "disc" and "square" instead of "circle" */
list-style-type: disc !important;
padding-left: 0;
margin-left: 0;
}
div.widget ul li {
/* 1.35 or more required for Safari or bullets too wide on the left */
margin-left: 1.35em;
/* overwrite existing display:block Firefox */
display: list-item;
}
However, when I try the more flexible CSS code for using images, I get no images before the list item, hovering or not. When I view source code, I do not see any reference to the button icon images in the CSS code.

HTML Code:
div.widget ul li a:link,
div.widget ul li a:visited,
div.widget ul li a:active,
div.widget ul li a:hover {
border-left: 0 !important;
padding-left: 0 !important;
}

div.widget ul li {
border-left: 0 !important;
padding-left: 15px !important;
background: url(/wp-content/themes/atahualpa342/images/icons/green-button.gif) no-repeat 0 3px;
}

div.widget ul li:hover,
div.widget ul li.sfhover {
border-left: 0 !important;
padding-left: 15px !important;
background: url(/wp-content/themes/atahualpa342/images/icons/blue-button.gif) no-repeat 0 3px;
}
Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?

OSX 10.11.5 WP 4.x Atahualpa(all) Safari, Firefox, Chrome
put a '.' before the url - ie 'url(./wp-content.......'

Thank you very much. Adding the "." worked.

But I don't understand why

background: url(./wp-content/themes/atahualpa342/images/icons/blue-button.gif)

is needed in my situation but the block everyone is instructed to cut and paste is

background: url(/wp-content/themes/atahualpa342/images/icons/blue-button.gif)
