• Hello-

    My page is not yet public, but I am having problems with my sidebar (about me) section. I am using a text widget on the sidebar menu, but when I make a bulleted list, it is not showing on the result. I tried it with numbers and it works fine. I tried adding code, but it is not working. Any other ideas?

    Also, can you give me the default body text for the theme? I could not find it in the documentation.
    Thanks.

    Hi @auntiecam!

    If you want to show the bullet points in the UL you can add the following CSS code to the custom CSS field in the customizer.

    Just head over to the customizer and click the last item (custom CSS).

    Add the following code to the end of the textfield:

    .textwidget ul {
        padding-left: 16px;
    }
    .textwidget ul li {
        list-style: disc;
    }

    Default body text: The font-family used in Twinkle Demo is “Droid Serif” however this font was removed from Google a few weeks ago so it is not available to choose for new sites.
    You can use any font that is available from google fonts: https://fonts.google.com/

    Best wishes, Dominik

    Thank you! The text widget is now working great, I even changed it to squares!

    I am still struggling with the fonts. When I look at the typography, here is what it says:
    Body Typography, Font Family: Lora
    Body Typography Bold, Font Family: Lato
    Headers Typography, Font Family: Robato
    Menu Typography, Font Family: Lato

    I see all but Lora in the google fonts.

    I am using the TinyMCE Advanced plugin, is that overwriting? Some of my initial feedback has been about the fonts, so want to get it right.

    The site is now live: auntiecam.com

    Thank you Dominik!

    Hi!

    It looks like TinyMCE Advanced plugin is adding inline styles to the paragraph tags.

    I see that you have correctly specified Lora as your body font but it is overwritten.

    Please have a look at this image:

    Can you send me the login details to your site so I can have a look at it?

    Sounds good, I just sent you editor rights through wp.

    I disabled the editor to see if that helped.

    newbie here ??

    Hi!

    I had a look at your site but without admin rights I can’t identify the problem.

    Please have a look at this post (https://auntiecam.com/unicorn-anxiety/) and tell me if the styling of the text is correct.

    Another post has a different font styling because of the inline styles (https://auntiecam.com/chicken-fish/). Did you add the content of this post via TinyMCE Advanced or maybe copy the content from another text processing tool (Microsoft word or similar)?

    You can easily correct it by switching to Text mode in the editor and delete the unnecessary “span” tags. (Have a look at this image: https://twinkle.wp-compass.com/issues/twinkle-font-issue2.jpg)

    Cheers, Dominik

    Got it. I can take a look later today and see how it stacks up.

    I also switched the rights.
