  Hello,

  I recently noticed that on some blog posts, some of the ‘i’s and ‘l’s are moved into a different spot. Everything is spelled correctly on the edit blog post page, but the published blog posts have a lot of spelling errors.

  Do you know how I can fix this?

  I’m having the same problem with a post that I just did. Any help would be great.

  I don’t know if this is related, but when writing in comments boxes, the letter f is getting eaten up. Very bizarre. A friend with a different theme has noticed it too.

  My problem is with the letter f too.

  Though I just noticed that it appears after a comment has been published. But that’s not very helpful.

  I’m glad it’s not just me!
  I don’t have any comments on some of the posts and it’s still happening.

  A glitch with liguatures (like fl and fi) was introduced in the Merriweather font a few days ago. According to the font’s developer, a fix will be pushed through to Google Fonts today (Jan. 25) in the morning, Pacific time:

  https://github.com/EbenSorkin/Merriweather/issues/16

  Temporary workarounds include:

  1. Add the following custom CSS, if you have access to the upgrade:

  html {
    -webkit-font-variant-ligatures: none;
    -moz-font-variant-ligatures: none;
    font-variant-ligatures: none;
  }

  OR,

  2. In your Customizer’s Fonts panel, choose another font.
