I will show you how to fix WordPress problem of title of posts  in the WordPress backend  showing in a downward line of one character per line. The Post Titles tend to appear in a vertical format, one character per line making dashboard terribly wrong and  hard to locate your posts.

When your in WordPress dashboard, click on “Screen Options” on the top right wordpress screen options location   2. Screen options will display some options, Tick off some options  . In my case i ticked of “AIOSEO Details”  which is loaded by  All in One Plugin. when i ticked off this, it created space for the post titles to stretch which were appearing vertical and the titles are fine now screen optionsOther options in screen options you can tick off include Tags, Author, Categories, date, Stats , etc, depending on Plugins you have in your website. The vertical post titles to appear vertical, collapsed or distorted is because the column space is not enough. ticking off some options will solve that.
