Is there an easy way to inert a list-style bullet before the post headline? I was thinking of <ul> before the PHP callout in the loop but I was hoping there's an easier CSS way of doing it.

Have you tried just typing a bullet as part of the title text?

That shows up in the Recent Posts widget and the editor but not the front page excerpt or the full single post.

I suppose I should clarify the purpose here -- I want to stylize the post headline but not have it call as part of the actual title (like in the Recent Posts or next/previous navigation).

I just tried it - I typed a alt-8 (on my mac) and I get a bullet. It shows up fine in the excerpt and full page post

Maybe it's just browser-based. I couldn't get the HTML bullet to show up in chrome.

Is there a way to auto-generate it in the index.php? I'm not having luck experimenting with

		<?php bfa_post_headline('<div class="post-headline">','</div>'); ?>

try this enter the following in the title of a post - and remove the spaces
& # 1 4 9 ;
