Words Breaking

By Silas Nelson, 9 years ago. Last reply by Matt Hsu, 8 years ago.

Hi, I’m running Vantage Premium. I noticed that as I resize my browser, some of my h1 text breaks midword onto another line, as if it were hyphenating, but without a hyphen. I want it so that the entire word goes onto the next line instead of breaking in parts.

Here is my site: http://theriochurch.com/our-stories/unwrapping-the-tentacles-of-hate/

I’m mostly noticing it on the “More Stories” text as you resize.

Any help?

    Hi Silas

    Thanks for reaching out. Try the following at Appearance > Custom CSS:

    /* Headings */

h1,
h2,
h3,
h4,
h5,
h6 {
  -moz-hyphens: auto;
  -ms-hyphens: auto;
  -webkit-hyphens: auto;
  hyphens: auto;
  word-break: normal;
}

    Let me know how that goes.

    Thanks

    I tried that, but it didn’t work. I changed it to

    h1,
h2,
h3,
h4,
h5,
h6 {
	word-wrap: normal;
}

    and that seemed to fix it, but now it extends out of the div when the browser width gets to a certain length. Do you know of any way to tell css to break the entire word to the next line when the div gets too small?

    Mmm, that’s what the rule I sent should have done.

    Can you send device and browser details so I can try replicate and then test.

    Thanks :)

    I’m using Google Chrome. I’m running it on a laptop, Windows 10.

    Hi, I Work Here

    Could you perhaps try the original rule I sent in our Custom CSS space at Appearance > Custom CSS:

    /* Headings */

h1,
h2,
h3,
h4,
h5,
h6 {
  -moz-hyphens: auto;
  -ms-hyphens: auto;
  -webkit-hyphens: auto;
  hyphens: auto;
  word-break: normal;
}

    That’ll make it a little easier for us to see it as it’s not compressed like your Custom CSS plugin. I’ll then get Magus here at SiteOrigin to check on Windows for me. Thanks.

    I’m getting this same issue, and pasting in the code given does not fix it. I have attached the picture from my iPhone 6s chrome. URL is https://uprighthealth.com/skype-sessions/

    You can see that “anywhere” gets chopped randomly midword.

    I get similar instances on another site as well in the headline widgets that other css fixes I’ve found on this support forum also did not help.
