Title: WordPress 3.5 Issues Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # WordPress 3.5 Issues * [dalewood](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dalewood/) * (@dalewood) * [13 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-35-issues/) * Hi * I uploaded the new version, WordPress 3.5 as soon as it was available but have come up with 2 issues so far: 1) When I go down foir the next paragraph it does not retain the font so I have to reset it for every paragraph. * How do I set a default font for my blog? 2) When I add links, usually just after my post, when I save either as a draft or publish it loses the links which obviously is no good. * Has anyone else reported this, any ideas? * Thank you, in anticipation, for your help * Phil Viewing 3 replies - 16 through 18 (of 18 total) [←](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-35-issues/?output_format=md) [1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-35-issues/?output_format=md) 2 * Moderator [Jan Dembowski](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jdembowski/) * (@jdembowski) * Forum Moderator and Brute Squad * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-35-issues/page/2/#post-3279689) * > Don’t know what is happening, posted about 4 hours ago but seems to have vanished, > as if it has been taken down. * Duplicates get deleted and that post was a duplicate of this one. * Your site [http://www.itsjustlife.co.uk/](http://www.itsjustlife.co.uk/) is using one of the most option ridden themes in the history of WordPress. On top of that you are using lots of plugins too with a ton of Javascript. * > I cannot maintain fonts when I paragraph down, need to reset fonts for every > paragraph! * Not sure what you are referring to. As Christine mentioned a week ago the styling( fonts) are controlled by the theme you are using. How are you changing the fonts? * > At the bottom of every post I put links to relevant articles, highlight text, > click link icon, insert link and save but when I save it messes up the spacing > and the link vanishes! * How are you adding those links? Do you type in the text, highlight the text and then use the link icon in the Visual Editor? * We’ll need to know those two answers in order to help you figure out where your problem lies. * I just wrote this up for another thread, try this and please do not leave out a single step. 1. Deactivate all of your plugins. Really, everyone of them and no exceptions. 2. Switch to the Twenty Eleven theme. Someday, probably soon, I’ll tell people Twenty Twelve but _for now use Twenty Eleven_. 3. Clear your browsers cookies and cache. This is an important step because javascript files can be cached on your browser. 4. Re-login to your WordPress installation. 5. Create a _new post_ and see if the Visual Editor works or not. * Don’t skip any steps and definitely clear out your browser’s cache and cookies. * Let us know how you make out with that. If that does not work then you’ll need to proceed with other steps to diagnose your problem. * Thread Starter [dalewood](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dalewood/) * (@dalewood) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-35-issues/page/2/#post-3279690) * Hi Thank you for your help and sorry for being a little impatient. * Yes that seems to have solved the problem apart from the paragraph down font size problem which is probably down to the theme. * For info I change the fonts by highlighting the text and clicking on the box in the top left corner, is it possible to set a default font for the site? * I am reducing my plugins, I am sure some of the plugin functionality ois now dealt with inside WordPress but with regard to the theme, I can appreciate the options available within Atahualpa can be a nightmare, what I am looking for is a rotating header, one sidebar either side, the ability to remove sidebars on pages and easy insertion of html script etc. can you recommend a more WordPress friendly theme? * I will keep you informed of developments and once again thank you for your help * Phil * Moderator [Jan Dembowski](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jdembowski/) * (@jdembowski) * Forum Moderator and Brute Squad * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-35-issues/page/2/#post-3279691) * > For info I change the fonts by highlighting the text and clicking on the box > in the top left corner, is it possible to set a default font for the site? * If you are doing that with each post and you want that to be the default then yes. * Normally you can do that via a [child theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes) and place your custom CSS in the child theme’s `style.css` file. * But that theme may have an option for that somewhere… if you want to stick with that theme you may want to ask at their support forum. * [http://forum.bytesforall.com/forumdisplay.php?f=38](http://forum.bytesforall.com/forumdisplay.php?f=38) * > what I am looking for is a rotating header, one sidebar either side, the ability > to remove sidebars on pages and easy insertion of html script etc. can you > recommend a more WordPress friendly theme? * I’m glad you keep your requirements simple too. 😀 * It’s hard for other people to recommend themes as you know best what you want and don’t want. Aside from looking at these links there’s not much advice I can offer on that. * [http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/](http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/) [http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/commercial/](http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/commercial/) [http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/tag-filter/](http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/tag-filter/) * What I recommend you do is create a new Crash Test Dummy installation with a new URL and hostname, check the `Search Engine Visibility` to “Discourage search engines from indexing this site. It is up to search engines to honor this request.” and use that new installation to play with. * That way you can search and test new themes without impacting your actual WordPress installation.
