Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.The default list unordered style in Commons 2 has list item markers centered *vertically* on their respective items.
As soon as you have nested lists or longer individual items, this makes them almost impossible to visually grok or process.
The default look is this: https://skitch.com/e-horncologne/ggnt8/commons-list-style-bug
Adding a helpful code snippet (<li style=" background-position: 4px 3px;"> to every darn list tag) makes it all better, but this is an unhelpful default in Commons. Can we change the default?
Here's the list with that bit of CSS added: https://skitch.com/e-horncologne/ggntw/improved-commons-list-style
Thanks!
