Is it normal for various formatting elements to not work on the responsive theme?

I notice that an bold text I have is no longer bold

here is an image:

It clearly is bold as the html says it is. We can’t change that. Unless you have changed it the font will be inherited from your WP theme so – if you go back to that console image (if Firebug) and look at the CSS on the right hand side you will see what rules have been applied. And if you look at the ‘Computed’ section that will show explicitly what has been applied.

That’s the whole point, it should be bold and it is not.

The html says it is, in the forum editor it shows bold, but when viewing the post it is not as per my image.

Sorry bit an image is of no use. It shows nothing. I asked about the CSS rules and the computed values in the console. Have you looked at those? What does that tell you?

There you go, bold in the editor, bold in the html, not bold on the page, not bold in the css ??

You have still missed out the third bit of information.

What actual CSS styling is being applied and from what source?

Do you really think that in our SP stylesheet we specifically set the ‘strong’ attribute to use a ‘normal’ font weight?  Why would we do that? And if you really do believe that then I challenge you to find it in any of our CSS.

So – the most important piece of information is – what styling is causing it and what is the source of that styling?

If it is public then give me a link to the post and let me take a look.

Computed style:

font-weight: normal;

#spMainContainer div, #spMainContainer span, #spMainContainer h1, #spMainContainer h2, #spMainContainer h3, #spMainContainer h4, #spMainContainer h5, #spMainContainer h6, #spMainContainer p, #spMainContainer blockquote, #spMainContainer pre, #spMainContainer code, #spMainContainer img, #spMainContainer big, #spMainContainer small, #spMainContainer strong, #spMainContainer b, #spMainContainer i, #spMainContainer ol, #spMainContainer ul, #spMainContainer li, #spMainContainer fieldset, #spMainContainer form, #spMainContainer label, #spMainContainer input, #spMainContainer select, #spMainContainer legend – normal

you’re getting very defensive sounding btw,

no one is attacking you… tone it down a bit.

Bold only stopped working when I switched to the responsive theme so this is a valid enquiry

who’s being defensive?  we are just asking for data to troubleshooting it…  images dont really help…  being requesting an actual link…

what’s the full path of the css file there?   is this a secret/private site or can you provide a link?

nobody said it wasnt valid…  really, just trying to gather info…  not sure why that’s so hard to understand…  may be a valid bug issue… or not…  but just needs research…

is this in unified in desktop mode or mobile?

No – not being defensive at all. Just suggesting that we would not be stupid enough to so such a thing. And, of course, you have proven that we were so – good find…

it’s all good … as long as I am not going crazy :)

It is a private protected page yes, sorry I couldn’t send that.
Sounds like you have found the issue then and I will wait for the update.
