  I would like to get rid of the hyphens that have been created randomly in mid-word throughout my Twenty Twelve theme pages and posts. It looks particularly bad in the headings. Any ideas?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there, I’m not seeing any hyphenation in titles in your post or page titles, but the following should turn off hyphenation virtually everywhere. Go to Appearance > Customize > CSS, delete all the informational text in that window, and paste in the following custom CSS.

  .widget-area .widget, .site-content article {
      -moz-hyphens: none;
      -ms-hyphens: none;
      -webkit-hyphens: none;
      hyphens: none;
  }

  If you look around and find any places where you still have hyphenation, can you provide a link to that location and we can catch those too.

  Hi. Many thanks for the fix. I had shortened my titles to avoid the problem in the meantime, but will now experiment again. All other hyphens gone, as far as I can see, but will come back to you if I stumble across any in due course. Very helpful advice!
