In a chapter I published recently, I seem to have triggered some kind of bug that now appears on every chapter I edit on that story (and maybe others, but I haven't tested that yet). The bug causes any of the font settings the text editor allows to be strangely warped in either size or boldness.

Example 1: First is the size it was in the editing box, second was the size it was in the actual chapter. This is the Setting "Header 6". Intention was to get a small tag under an image, instead I got bold text that was larger than normal paragraphs.



Example 2: This is Header 1, I did it just because I was getting highly confused. Again, first is what was in the editing box. Second is what was on the chapter on publish. Somehow it deleted the boldness.



Steps that lead up to this bug and further details:

1. I copy my chapter over from gdocs.
2. I inserted and image.
3. I then editted in an image about 5 minutes later.
4. I added the (Art by Kriniere) text to the chapter and set it to Header 6. This appeared as advertised in the chapter at this point.
5. Because the new image in the chapter came out larger than I wanted it to be, I used the "Limit Display" feature
6. When I clicked publish, the formation broke
7. I attempted to reverse this by simply lifting the Display Limit again, but the bug stuck beyond that
8. I then deleted the entire text of the chapter and re-inserted from gdocs again, replicating Steps 1-4. The bug still stuck.
9. Further testing revealed that using ANY of the preset font changes on ANY of my chapters now causes odd inversions as seen above. Only the default paragraph still works as intended.
10. Restarting my Browser also did not fix this issue.


I have no idea why fiddling with the display settings would cause the text to go haywire, if that even is what happened. Alas, the way of the software are often mysterious.

I hope this bug can be fixed or circumvented easily.

When copying the text into the editor from google docs, click on this before pasting it:



It removes all formatting options. You can try editing afterward. I had weird pacing issues from directly copying my work from docs before doing it this way. Maybe it will help.
