Italics not working
-
I’m trying to italicize selected text in my article but it’s not translating. I had the same problem with bold before and has to add a style in CSS for bold to work. I’m sure it’s a CSS thing but I’m very new to all of this.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

It looks like you are working with a self-hosted WordPress.org site instead of the WordPress.com-hosted version supported here.
Learn more about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org:
https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/With that being said, there may be a conflict with a plugin or theme. You can try deactivating all plugins. If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually until you find the cause.
If that does not resolve the issue, try switching to the default theme for your version of WordPress to rule-out a theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).
The CSS for italics would be:
i { font-style: italic; }or
em { font-style: italic; }If none of those fix the problem, I would recommend checking out the WordPress.org support forums for more assistance:

Thank you! I tried the second CSS you listed above earlier but it didn’t work but the first one does. Probably a stupid question but where do we get a list of all of the CSS style codes?

You’re welcome, I’m glad one of them worked!
Mozilla has a great resource for CSS:
