Question How do I change the appearance of the undocumented indent tag in Kunena?

Any idea where I can edit the bbcode css attributes such as the amount of top and bottom padding/margin for the INDENT bbcode tags? I need to make lists and sub (and sub-sub) lists without using complicated bbcode and not have a bullet point show up.

Example:
I want to make this:



Look like this:

I have split your topic - Use a different editor? - in which you posted your question because it is a different question and I have moved your question to a category that more appropriately deals with such matters as the appearance of bulleted list items.

I would draw your attention to an answer I gave similarly only a short time ago, namely Full screen forum.... , in which I want to remind people about the general approach that we take in relation to generalised, broad issues caused by the Joomla site template choices that people have taken.

The appearance of bullet pointed unordered lists in Kunena is invariably resolved by an appropriate use of CSS code that overrides whatever rules are used in your Joomla site template CSS file. If we had more information about your site (and therefore what CSS rules are involved in your site) we may be able to help you. However, the easiest way for you to resolve this issue yourself is to learn to effectively use Firebug for Firefox (or other web design tools), develop an appreciation and understanding of CSS, and apply these principles in your webcraft. I hope that some of this information will help you and others seeking to overcome similar problems that people may have.

Using rhuk_milkyway on J 1.5.23 and thanks for splitting topic.

I did use Firebug to find the general ul css and it says it's located in kunena.forum-min.css in which I edited the list-style-type line and changed 'disc' to 'none'.

Seems this works for only one post though which is strange - the next time you create a ul it adds the bullets back in. But your saying that Kunena uses the Joomla template css for uls/ols?


Actually this isn't about uls or ols, it's about the indent bbcode tag that created my example. I believe indent *might* use the blockquote tag but i'm not sure. Any insight?

Look at the HTML created by your website. You will find that ordered or unordered list items comprise <ol><li> ... </li></ol> HTML tags. There are no <blockquote> tags used. For example, look at the following list:

• Item 1
  • sub-item 1.1
  • sub-item 1.2
• Item 2
  • sub-item 2.1
  • sub-item 2.2
    • sub-item 2.2.1
    • sub-item 2.2.2

I created this list with the following Kunena BBCode: Look at the HTML source of this page and you will see that there are no <blockquote> tags in this posting.

Again, I say to you, you are asking us to give a generalised answer to a specific problem that affects your website and we do not know anything about your website.

People should never directly modify the file kunena.forum-min.css. We have said this hundreds of time. Do not directly modify the file kunena.forum-min.css! If you want to override the CSS in that file, add specific CSS rules to the end of your Joomla site template CSS file.

Please read the FAQs page, especially the section How do I change the colours of my template in Kunena?

Read again the options you have available to you in the article My Joomla template is making a mess of Kunena .

Thanks for the reply.
I know how to create it using uls but the guy I am making these forums does not, and I have no desire to teach him. Using the indent tag is much simpler for everyone: If you create a post like this and use Firebug to inspect it you'll see what is in the attached screen shot. They are blockquotes, not lists.
What I am trying to do is figure out where the website is getting the css from that determines the spacing around those blockquotes in the indent bbcode tags.
Is it coming from Joomla or from Kunena?

Firebug says it is coming from kunena.forum-min-css and I tried a template over-ride using 'custom.css' to no avail.

Thoughts?

EDIT: plus, using the indent tag doesn't use bullets which is what I was trying to avoid in the first place.

I have asked you twice now to show us exactly where, on your website, you have this issue. You have not done that.

Perhaps someone else can guess better than me what you need to do. I am not going to guess or spend any more time on this issue if you cannot offer information that assists.

If you believe that using the

ccvortex, please post your Kunena Configuration Report, un-edited in reply to this message, as that will enable us to help you more easily.

Please read first What information should I include when I ask for help (including how to post my configuration report)?

The reason I haven't showed you where on my site the problem is occurring is because it isn't occurring on my site per se. It is a general question about whether or not you know if the bbcode used in the Kunena editor uses its own css to format things like INDENT, or UL, etc, or does it pull from the Joomla css.

Indent is better than lists because of the no bullet issue, but since it seems like you don't really know if your editor uses Kunena or Joomla css with regard to bbcode then I guess I am the one that will be making the guesses

Your question about what css is used "was" answered by sozzled:

"The appearance of bullet pointed unordered lists in Kunena is invariably resolved by an appropriate use of CSS code that overrides whatever rules are used in your Joomla site template CSS file. If we had more information about your site (and therefore what CSS rules are involved in your site) we may be able to help you."

Bullet points and other types of typography are overruled by your joomla template's css not by Kunenas.

Hope this answers your question.

I believe some clarification is needed here. There is no documentation written about the
