    WP has an auto correct function that “corrects” consecutive hyphens – into a solid line. In my case this is an undesired function. “Corrects” – – – into a solid line —
    I have a morse code script on the header of my site that is therefore displayed incorrectly. In my About page I was able to use a short code to eliminate the auto-correction function of WP and add a hyperlink so the morse code is displayed correctly. Would appreciate information as to what script I could add to the Lucienne theme to eliminate the WP auto correct function on the front page. Thank you.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    I was looking for a solution for a similar problem, and I came up with putting the formatting designating code around my dashes to prevent them from autocorrecting. < code >

    Good solution within the text of posts but not for the header text of the theme. The .... text remains visible
