I think you have the wrong forum. You want the WordPress.com forums. Unfortunately not much you can do without having to pay for the custom CSS other than switching themes.
Thanks for your reply Jose and sorry for not being clearer.
My website is wordpress.org
(I tried out what was suggested in the .com support because it was the only information I could find.)
So, can somebody clarify if I can change the code in .org to solve this problem? Or do I absolutely have to buy the custom CSS if I want to keep the same theme?
If I can change the code please tell me how to do this.
Thank you again.
If it is a self-hosted site then you can achieve it by using a custom CSS plugin. I think you have it confused because on WordPress.com there is an option for the custom CSS upgrade. They are not related to self-hosted WordPress installs. They are different.
Can you post your site address please?
Yes, it’s a .org self hosted site.
I have installed the Simple Custom CSS plugin but as I don’t know anything about coding I don’t know what to do next.
My site is not quite finished yet so it’s still private – using the Coming Soon plugin.
I can temporary put it public if necessary??
You can add this on your custom css.
.entry-content {
-webkit-hyphens: none;
-moz-hyphens: none;
-ms-hyphens: none;
hyphens: none;
}
The better question now is if you want just the posts to have no hyphens or do you want it site-wide? If that is the case you can use the code Ron provided. If you want it site-wide you can just change the selector from .entry-content to .site
Brilliant! Thank you so much, that’s got rid of the hyphens.
Can I please ask another question?
Yesterday I installed the Hide Title pluggin in an effort to get rid of the Category Archives: [My post title] which was showing on some posts. It didn’t work and I’ve now deactivated and deleted that plugin but the titles of all my posts have disappeared both from the home page and the posts themselves. (They are still there when I go in to edit the posts).
Any ideas on what could be wrong?
(I did manage to get rid of the Category Archives issue with the custom ccs plugin).
