    Hello,

    How do I get the content of a bulleted list to align and not wrap directly under a bullet, please?

    The ul li in question is on the home page left sidebar.

    Thank you,
    Doug

    Hi,
    I believe I have that covered for you.

    In this bit of CSS, the line with "inside" is the culprit. So you could comment that out or delete it.

    .widget li {
    list-style-type: none;
    text-align: left;
     list-style: inside;
    }
    

    But if you do that, your list will suddenly be way to the left. To fix that, stick some left margin on this other bit, like this:

    .sidebar li {
      list-style-type: disc;
      margin-bottom: 6px;
      margin-bottom: 0.6rem;
      margin-left: 20px;
      margin-left: 2rem;
      word-wrap: break-word;
    }
    

    ... and adjust to taste. Check other areas of your site, as widgets in non-sidebar areas may possibly be affected.

    Cheers, Dave
