Text Widget creates a

I’ve got a basic text widget and, outside the standard <div class="textwidget"> wrapper there is a <li id="text-5" class="widget widget_text"> (which I have not added when creating the sidebar in functions.php or added when adding a text widget from the dashboard).

i.e. the full code looks like this:

<li id="text-5" class="widget widget_text">
  <div class="textwidget">
    <my content>
  </div>
</li>

I’m at a loss where this li comes from. Any idea why and how I can get rid of it?

I think WordPress widgets create li tags on default. If you want the bullet points removed you could fix that with a css approach.

.widget li {
  list-style: none;
}
