How to Fix Helvetica Neue Font Issue in Facebook while using Google Chrome/Windows 7

You might have installed the ever so beautiful and elegant font Helvetica and it's family viz. Helvetica Neue and then seen a queer font-face in Chrome, as in the image below:

  

Searching for a fix I even tried the commonly suggested solution:

Permanent Solution:

The permanent solution is nothing but deleting the font which I guess you don’t want to.

To delete a font, you must restart your PC in safe mode and then delete the font by deleting it from Control Panel.

Temporary Solution:

This solution is also a kind of permanent solution. In this method we are going to alter the Chrome file a little bit.

Open your Windows Explorer and then go to C:\Users\[YourName]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\User StyleSheets\custom.css

You can use Notepad to open the .css file. After opening the file, you just need to add two lines which is written below.


@font-face { font-family: ‘helvetica neue’; src: local(‘Arial’); }

@font-face { font-family: ‘helvetica neue’; font-weight:bold; src: local(‘Arial’); }


 But even this solution didn't quite resolve my issue, mainly with Facebook.

And after some more searching I came across this Chrome extension called Facebook Font Changer which eventually resolved my problem. Install this extension and chose the font of your choice.  You can see the issue resolved in the image below.


Note: 
1. Pirated fonts might also be the culprit to this bug.

Facebook Shortcut(s)

Shortcut #1: How to START or Go to a New Line in the Comment Box (New Facebook || FB)

As everyone of us must have noticed, it's not possible to press enter and go to the new line unlike the earlier comment box, making it difficult for people to post smileys, emoticons, comments the way they would like to. & today I happened to find a simple solution to this obscure problem. Simply, Press (Shift+Enter) in your comment box. Eureka!!! & it's done...

N.B: Visitors are welcome to post the FB shortcuts they discover in the comment box.

Thanks!!!!

How to Change your Facebook (FB) Relationship Status without letting your Friends know about it?

Sometimes you might have been or will be in a situation, where you would want to Change your Facebook Relationship Status, without letting your friends know a thing about it. In the sense, you wouldn't want "your status change" to be displayed in the Facebook's Newsfeed where all your friends will view it. 

So how do you go about it? Very Simple.... By following a simple trick (that I myself have tested & tried) you can easily achieve that ;-)

1. Hover your mouse over the Account Tab & Click On Privacy Settings. 
2. Now at the bottom of your page click on Customise settings
3. On the right side of Relationships you can see a tab which might read as (Everyone, Friends of Friends etc) depending upon what you'd selected previously. Click on that Tab and Select >>> Customize
4. A box called Custom Privacy will open. 
5. On the "Make this visible to" option; Select "only me" and finally Click on "Save Setting."

Now you can change your relationship status to the status of your choice.

Once you've made the required relationship status change, follow the steps above and in the Visible section >>> Select >>> "Make these visible to: friends, friends of friends" depending on your choice.
