To create bullet points in Webflow that appear from right to left (RTL), you can follow these steps:

  1. Create a new text element: Start by adding a text element to your page where you want the bullet points to appear.

  2. Set the text alignment: Select the text element and go to the Style panel. Under the Typography section, set the text alignment to "right" using the text-align property. This will ensure that the text, including the bullet points, is aligned to the right side.

  3. Customize the bullet points: By default, Webflow uses the unordered list <ul> tag to create bullet points. To change the appearance of the bullet points, you can add custom CSS code.

  • Select the text element and go to the Style panel.
  • Scroll down to the Custom Code section and click on the "+" button to add a new CSS property.
  • In the property field, enter "list-style-type" to specify the appearance of the bullet points.
  • In the value field, enter the CSS code that corresponds to the bullet point style you desire. For example, to create right-to-left Arabic bullet points, you can use "decimal-leading-zero" or "arabic-indic"; for other styles, you can explore other CSS values such as "symbol" or "image".
  1. Customize the indentation: By default, Webflow applies some indentation to the bullet points. To adjust the indentation, you can add custom CSS code.
  • Select the text element and go to the Style panel.
  • Scroll down to the Custom Code section and click on the "+" button to add a new CSS property.
  • In the property field, enter "padding" to specify the indentation.
  • In the value field, enter the CSS code that represents the desired indentation. For example, you can use "padding-right" to increase or decrease the space between the bullet points and the right side of the text element.
  1. Save and publish: Once you have made the desired changes, save and publish your Webflow project to see the bullet points aligned from right to left (RTL) on your live website.

With these steps, you can easily create bullet points in Webflow that appear from right to left (RTL) and customize their appearance based on your design preferences.
