I switched my blog to the new Spearhead theme. I like it. It’s simple, that’s what I was looking for.

I noticed that a list (ordered/unordered), the indent is big

would there be an option to reduce the indent slightly?

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi,

You can modify that with some custom CSS, this is the code you’d like to modify:
```
ul, ol {
    padding-left: calc(2 * var(--global--spacing-horizontal));
}
```
You can use a fixed number and, for example, set the padding to 30px.

Yes, but the option to set custom CSS is only available in paid plans.

From design perspective, is there a reason the indent is big?

I believe that the designer of the theme felt (stylistically) that it looked better. There is not a technical reason.

However, to adjust the spacing you will need to upgrade to our WordPress.com Premium Plan here, which you can learn more about here: https://wordpress.com/pricing/

There is not a way to adjust spacing without upgrading, though you may want to try a different theme as they do not all use that same indentation.

Hope this helps!

Thanks… would it be an option to ask the designers to decrease the indent just a bit 😬?

I’m happy to pass that feedback on to our theme developers, but as the indenting is a matter of taste (and not a bug, for example) I cannot guarantee that it would be changed.

It can however be reduced through CSS so that is the option I recommend at this time.
