Using a Glyphicon as an LI bullet point (Bootstrap 3)

This isn’t too difficult with a little CSS, and is much better than using an image for the bullet since you can scale it and colour it and it will keep sharp at all resolutions.

1. Find the character code of the glyphicon by opening the Bootstrap docs and inspecting the character you want to use.

   

2. Use that character code in the following CSS

   li {
       display: block;
   }
   
   li:before {
       /*Using a Bootstrap glyphicon as the bullet point*/
       content: "\e080";
       font-family: 'Glyphicons Halflings';
       font-size: 9px;
       float: left;
       margin-top: 4px;
       margin-left: -17px;
       color: #CCCCCC;
   }
   

   You may like to tweak the colour and margins to suit your font size and taste.
