Hi martcol, many thanks for your help, I do appreciate it. It`s all a bit above my head at the moment, plenty of study needed I think. I changed my theme, that has done the trick for now. Kind regards
OK. Glad you got it fixed. Hope the new theme suits you.
I am also having a problem with auto hyphenation of words. I found this response in an earlier post:
.site-content article {
border-bottom: 4px double #ededed;
margin-bottom: 72px;
margin-bottom: 5.142857143rem;
padding-bottom: 24px;
padding-bottom: 1.714285714rem;
word-wrap: break-word;
-webkit-hyphens: auto;
-moz-hyphens: auto;
hyphens: auto;
}
change auto to none. I did that but I’m still getting hyphenated words. I was using TinyMCE editor so deactivated and that made no difference. I also tried changing
word-wrap: break-word;
to
word-wrap: normal;
Is there some other way to turn off hyphens?
Thanks,
Linda
@linda – CSS is generally theme and site specific, so finding some code someplace may or may not work on your site. I’d suggest starting your own thread and posting a link to your site.
I’m sorry – I have to admit that I’m not really sure how to start my own thread. I’m using the twenty-thirteen theme and I found the classes that were referred to in the previous post in the twenty-thirteen css file. I used Custom CSS to override the theme’s css file. Is there a forum specifically for the twenty-thirteen theme?
Yep, no problem – right here:
https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/theme/twentythirteen
Scroll to the bottom of that forum to start a new thread there. Include a link to your site too.
Why has this not been resolved. This is the thing I can’t stand about the WP developers, they don’t LISTEN to anyone. No one wants all their words hyphenated. People have been complaining about this forever, and yet they don’t give a crap. Provide a preference to turn this crap off already, and then make it off by default, because no one wants it. Lazy, lazy, lazy developers.
