Can I adjust the indent of a bullet list in a rich text element in Webflow?

TL;DR
  • Open the Webflow Designer tab, select the rich text element with the bullet list.
  • Create and apply a custom class, navigate to the Style panel; custom CSS is needed for indentation adjustments.
  • Add custom CSS in Project Settings under Custom Code, apply it to the class and publish the changes.

Adjusting the indent of a bullet list in a rich text element in Webflow requires some specific changes. Here's a step-by-step guide.

1. Access the Designer

  • Open your Webflow project and go to the Designer tab where you have your rich text element.

2. Select the Rich Text Element

  • Click on the rich text element containing the bullet list you want to adjust.

3. Apply a Custom Class

  • Create and apply a custom class to the rich text element, which allows you to make style adjustments specific to this element.

4. Use the Designer Panel

  • Go to the Style panel on the right side.
  • Look for the Typography section within the Style panel.

5. Adjust List Indentation

  • Unfortunately, Webflow doesn't provide a built-in control for adjusting list indentation directly in the Style panel.
  • Custom CSS embedded in the Project Settings or Page Settings is required for specific indentation changes.

6. Add Custom CSS

  • Navigate to Project Settings > Custom Code.
  • In the Head Code or Body Code section, you can add a <style> section with custom CSS. For instance:

  ```css

  .your-custom-class ul {

    margin-left: 20px;

  }

  ```

  • **Replace .your-custom-class** with the class name you applied to the rich text element.

7. Save and Publish

  • Save your changes and publish your site to see the adjustments take effect.

Summary

You can adjust bullet list indentation in Webflow by using a custom class and adding custom CSS within your project settings. Since Webflow doesn't provide a direct styling option for list indentation, applying styles via custom code is necessary.
