Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA
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

Some bullets cut-off in widgets

www.anythinggoesgourmet.com

a finally got rid of the vertical gray bars in the right side bar using the following code.

/* Setup bullets for LI items on sidebar */
div.widget ul {
list-style-type: none !important;
}

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;
}

/* Normal bullet */
div.widget ul li {
border-left: 0 !important;
padding-left: 15px !important;
background: url(/wp-content/themes/atahualpa/images/bullets/TinyRedBullet.GIF) no-repeat 0 1.0em;
}
/* On hover bullet */
div.widget ul li:hover,
div.widget ul li.sfhover {
border-left: 0 !important;
padding-left: 15px !important;
background: url(/wp-content/themes/atahualpa/images/bullets/TinyRedBullet.GIF) no-repeat 0 1.0em;
}
/***************************************/

However, I've obviously done something else along the way here and I don't remember what or where. The bullet is dropping down below the line on the first 4 posts/categories, showing only about 10% of the top of the image. Yet, a couple of the items do show 100% of the image.

Any ideas? (newbie alert - KISS for me, please?)

0 1.0em means "0 to the right, 1em to the bottom" or in other words "0 on the X-Axis (horizontal), 1em on the Y-axis (vertical)", always starting at the top left corner.

Use
background: url(/wp-content/themes/atahualpa/images/bullets/TinyRedBullet.GIF) no-repeat left top;

Or to be even more CSS-conform:

background: url(/wp-content/themes/atahualpa/images/bullets/TinyRedBullet.GIF) no-repeat scroll left top;

"scroll" is the default setting (opposed to "fixed") and can usually be left out

Thanks Flynn for the quick and complete reply. However, now I've lost my bullets entirely. The code in the CSS/Inserts reads:

/* Setup bullets for LI items on sidebar */
div.widget ul {
list-style-type: none !important;
}

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;
}

/* Normal bullet */
div.widget ul li {
border-left: 0 !important;
padding-left: 15px !important;
background: url(/wp-content/themes/atahualpa/images/bullets/TinyRedBullet.GIF) no-repeat left-top;
}
/* On hover bullet */
div.widget ul li:hover,
div.widget ul li.sfhover {
border-left: 0 !important;
padding-left: 15px !important;
background: url(/wp-content/themes/atahualpa/images/bullets/TinyRedBullet.GIF) no-repeat left-top;
}
/***************************************/

I also tried it using the word 'scroll' as your other example showed. Same result. BTW, I have also reset the left margin on all three widget list items to zero, which I thought I had to do to get the bullets.

any ideas? (seems like a lot of people have trouble with those gray vertical bars. Maybe some choices could become an option in a future update? Great theme, and thanks again.)
