Main issue: Bulleted lists in the Dawn theme weren’t aligning correctly; multi-line list items didn’t hang/align flush under the first line.
Key solution: Add CSS to set the list marker outside the content block: .rte li { list-style-position: outside; }. This targets Dawn’s rich-text list items.
Implementation details: Insert the CSS inside a tag in theme.liquid (Online Store → Theme → Edit code). Placing it outside a tag or in the wrong spot (e.g., raw before or above ) caused layout issues, including an unintended banner.
Alternative notes: One suggestion avoided using offsets/negative indents in favor of the simpler list-style-position approach. Another version added !important, but correct placement was the critical factor.
Outcome: After moving the CSS into the proper section, the formatting worked as desired. The thread appears resolved with no outstanding questions.
Artifacts: Screenshots were shared to show misalignment, code placement attempts, and the corrected setup; they were supportive but not required to apply the fix.
Hi, I am looking to change the bullet point formatting on the theme, Dawn.
I would like to change this so that it’s flush just like in the example above.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you!

A cleaner solution would be to use this CSS instead, and not bother with offsets and negative indents:
.rte li {
list-style-position: outside;
}

Yes. You should put it under the tag. Then click save.
@blwalsh21 Put the code above
That worked! Thank you so much!
