Every time I edit my post I lose bold and italics

Hi there

This is the first time I have experienced this problem.

When I edit my latest post and then click save I find that the updated page has returned bold and/or italic text to normal. I then try to return that text to bold or italic but it gets lost when I save it again. It’s driving me a little crazy…. O.o

Any ideas?

Cheers

I’m having the same problem. When I first publish a post or page, it’s fine. But when I edit the post or page, all bold and italics formatting disappears. If I edit, and re-apply all formatting before saving, then it persists.

This looks like a bug. Does WordPress know / are they working on it?

I’m using the ChaosTheory theme (if that’s relevant) and the standard visual editor.

Thanks,

Same thing happening to me. I just created a trouble report on this for WordPress and they’re working on it.

Guess I should have included a link to my blog, just in case that helps:

Ooops. I’ve still got the same problem….

The problem persists for me, too. I have to re-apply all bold and italics formatting when I edit a post, or it disappears.

Thanks Hanni for chasing this for us!

I’m still having the same problem. My theme is ‘Ambiru’.

sunandadeshapriya,
The fonts look absolutely normal to me. Font sizes depend on the theme. Did just change your theme?

still having this problem, too. i did notice that my italics do not disappear upon editing if i first de-italicize then re-italicize each time i edit. this is a hassle. it may, however, indicate something about the bug. i’m using the ‘connections’ theme.
