This tutorial is for all versions of Squarespace, from the latest 7.1 to older sites like Brine and Bedford theme templates.

In this tutorial, we are going to use a little simple CSS to create custom bullet points in Squarespace. But we are even going to go a step further and customize them for each different text type! That’s right – you can have a custom bullet point for your H1 or H3 or paragraph text – any text type can have a unique bullet point style.

The codes from this tutorial are listed in the first comment below because YouTube won’t let me add that greater than symbol inside a video description… 😑

Oh! And the list of Unicode characters that I tested on my demo site on Chrome, Safari and a few mobile devices is available at https://insidethesquare.co/unicode

You can just copy and paste the character from that page into the code, placing it between the quotation marks.

Okay – I think that’s it for this one! Have fun 😁

//–All text types
ul li(greater-than-symbol-goes-here)*:first-child::before {content: “→”;}

//–Heading One Text Example
ul li(greater-than-symbol-goes-here)h1:first-child::before {content: “→”;}

//–Heading Three Text Example
ul li(greater-than-symbol-goes-here)h3:first-child::before {content: “→”;}

//–Paragraph Text
ul li(greater-than-symbol-goes-here)p:first-child::before{content: “→”;}

//–Change the color too
ul li(greater-than-symbol-goes-here)*:first-child::before {content: “→”; color: red}

//–Change the color & font size
ul li(greater-than-symbol-goes-here)*:first-child::before {content: “→”; color: re; font-size: 2rem}

//–Change the color, font, and add a rotation
ul li(greater-than-symbol-goes-here)*:first-child::before {content: “→”; color: red; transform: rotate(45deg)}
