Hi

I am using Joomla 2.5.7 and Easy Blog 3.5.13506 (Professional).

I currently have two issues when using Easy Blog with Windows Live Writer 2012 (16.4.3528.331):

When I use either bullets or numbering in LIve Writer they are display properly but when I publish my blog post to easy blog no bullets or numbering are present on the blog post.
If I use the Web editor to edit the post I can see the bullets and numbering when in editing mode but when I apply changes they are nbot shown.

The other problem I am having is an issue with images in my blog posts. I have created one blog post when images (screen shots) and it displays correctly. I then created another blog post with quite a lot of screen shots and even though it looks fine in Live Writer, some of the images look streched and some of the images in this blog post is using images from the other blog post.

Has anyone seen these issues that I am having and maybe have a solution or now where to start the throubleshoting?

Kind regards

Hello Michael,

You can fix this by adding the block of css codes below into your template's css file, and override the previous code given.


.blog-text ul > li{

    list-style: disc outside none;

    margin: 10px;

}

.blog-text ol > li {

    list-style: decimal outside none;

    margin: 10px;

}


Hope this will help.
Thanks.

Hello Michael,

I have checked your site and it looks like the list styling is reset by your template. Hence, the bullets are actually not appearing. You can fix this by adding the block of css codes below into your template's css file,



.blog-text ul > li, .blog-text ol > li {

    list-style: disc outside none;

    margin: 10px;

}

Hi

Thanks a lot for your help. After implementing the code above in my style.css file, I can now see bullets in my blog post but numbering still doesn´t Work correctly. If i use numbering now each section gets a bullet in front of it instead of a number.

Pardon my ignorance but did I insert the code you gave me into the correct file?

Kind regards
