Please HELP! Changing themes messed up all product descriptions!

Topic summary

A store owner switched themes and discovered that all product descriptions are now displaying incorrectly, particularly the numbering/list formatting. With 150 products affected, they’re seeking a solution that doesn’t require manually editing each description.

The Issue:

  • Numbering and list formatting broken across all product descriptions after theme change
  • Affects approximately 150 products

Proposed Solution:
A community member identified the root cause: <p> tags are nested inside <li> tags in the product descriptions. They offered two approaches:

  1. Quick CSS fix (temporary workaround):
.product_description li p {
  display: inline;
}
.product_description li {
  margin-bottom: 0.5em;
}
  1. Proper fix: Remove <p> tags from within <li> tags and update all descriptions accordingly

Additional note: The responder mentioned that right-click prevention on the site makes it harder to provide developer support.

The discussion remains open with no confirmation yet on which solution the store owner will implement.

First of all I would like to thank the wonderful community here for always helping out.

I just changed my theme and now all my descriptions are messed. Mostly the numbering is messed up. Is there a way to fix this? I don’t want to edit all 150 product descriptions! :disappointed_face:

It will be easier to get developer support if you don’t prevent right clicking on your site.

The correct way to fix this, would be to not use

tags inside your

  • tags and update all of your descriptions accordingly.

    The way you’re going to want to fix this, is by adding the following CSS to your page:

    .product__description li p {
      display: inline;
    }
    .product__description li {
      margin-bottom: 0.5em;
    }
