Kevin Geary had a great video on creating very flexible bullet lists using the rich text element and some custom CSS. I have done something similar, but this is so much more flexible. I recommend you watch the video. Here is the CSS.
/* .checklist */
%root% {
--icon-url: url(/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2025/01/check-bullet-blue.svg);
--icon-color: var(--primary-dark);
--icon-size: 1em;
--icon-offset: 0 .65ex;
--icon-gap:.5em;
}
%root% ul {
list-style: none;
padding: 0;
}
%root% li {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: auto minmax(0, 1fr);
gap: var(--icon-gap);
&::before {
content: '';
display: flex;
background: var(--icon-color);
inline-size: var(--icon-size);
block-size: var(--icon-size);
translate: var(--icon-offset);
-webkit-mask-image: var(--icon-url);
-webkit-mask-size: cover;
mask-image: var(--icon-url);
mask-size: cover;
}
}
/* .checklist--blue */
%root%{
--icon-color: var(--primary-semi-light);
--icon-size:2em;
--icon-gap:2em;
}
/* .checklist--green-x */
%root%{
--icon-color:var(--success);
--icon-url:url(/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2025/01/red-x-circles.svg)
}CSSIf you are not using Bricks Builder and the %root% concept. If you are using WordPress core you can either remove checklist ul and add all the “ul” related styles directly to the list with a class of checklist or wrap it in a group and add the checklist class to the group.

/* .checklist */
.checklist {
--icon-url: url(/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2025/01/check-bullet-blue.svg);
--icon-color: var(--primary-dark);
--icon-size: 1em;
--icon-offset: 0 .65ex;
--icon-gap:.5em;
}
.checklist ul {
list-style: none;
padding: 0;
}
.checklist li {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: auto minmax(0, 1fr);
gap: var(--icon-gap);
&::before {
content: '';
display: flex;
background: var(--icon-color);
inline-size: var(--icon-size);
block-size: var(--icon-size);
translate: var(--icon-offset);
-webkit-mask-image: var(--icon-url);
-webkit-mask-size: cover;
mask-image: var(--icon-url);
mask-size: cover;
}
}
/* .checklist--blue */
.checklist--blue{
--icon-color: var(--primary-semi-light);
--icon-size:2em;
--icon-gap:2em;
}
/* .checklist--green-x */
.checklist--green-x {
--icon-color:var(--success);
--icon-url:url(/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2025/01/red-x-circles.svg)
}CSSThis is a test – checklist
- List item 1
- List item 2
- List item 3
- List Item 4
This is a test – checklist checklist–green-x
- List item 1
- List item 2
- List item 3
- List Item 4
