    • Numbered Lists Too Far To The Left

    Posted by Rob

    Howdy - Been using TikiWiki for a pretty long time and just got permission to use TikiWiki at my current job setting up a Knowledge Base.

    Currently at 27.5 but about to install 29.1 on another server once I get the PHP 8.4 deprecation errors fixed.

    On this 27.5 build, when creating Wiki pages, we're using a lot of numbered/ordered lists to create troubleshooting steps, but when you view the page, the numbers are so far to the left they are even further left than the headings and paragraphs.

    Here is an example on a newly created page, with zero content to mess it up: Image

    I have added custom CSS to the Customization section in Admin - didn't help. Spent hours combing the the css files and editing bits here and there that related to ol or ul, but nothing helped. Googled and got deep into the pages, but it didn't help.

    I finally went into the developer console in Chrome, found the element, edited it on the developer side and the numbered list finally moved. It related to Line 582 in _tiki-miscellaneous_global_scss in \themes\base_files\scss. Added margin-left: 40px; (in Developer console) and it worked. Added the same info to the css file and uploaded it - nothing happened.

    After several days of working on this, I thought I would try coming here for help.

    Hi Rob,
    Sorry for the late response. Could you try adding ol { padding-left: 50px; } in the Look & Feel custom CSS textarea? This works here when I add it in the browser web inspector. Padding of 50px aligns the list with the other text. You could increase that if you want lists indented.

    HI Rick

    Looks are important, so we understand your frustration. Did you try Gary's suggestion here? Looks worth a try to me...

    Maybe this was for me? No, didn't try it as my project got the boot, so became a non-issue.
