the_content doesn't display formatting from visual editor

  • I have a custom theme that doesn’t show special formatting like bullets on line items for example, when I call the_content. If I switch to the 2014 theme, it works great. Now I’m not sure if my theme is not implementing something that 2014 does or that my theme is filtering something out. I’m not sure where to look. Any guesses on where to start?

    Thank you

    It’s possible that your custom theme has somehow hidden the regular stylings of the unordered lists. Perhaps your menu was styled by removing list-style-type on
    list elements, but instead of styling a specific class or id, all list items were targeted.

    Either way, here’s some CSS to get you started:

    li {
   list-style-type:circle;
   margin:0 0 6px 24px;
}

    I happen to like a little bit of a buffer between list items (which is where that 6px comes into play).

    I hope that helps!

    I think you’re right. I didn’t even think of that! I will take a look
