Blocked quotes split words at the end of lines.

When I use block quotes in a blog post like this on the ultra theme, my words get broken up at the end of lines instead of maintaining the integrity of the words as it does here.

Hi Pastormac

We ran into problems with very long strings, perhaps something like a long URL, running outside the boundaries of the blockquote. However, I can see that the fix we came up with causes the problem you’re having. Please, try this:

1. Go to Plugins > Add New, search for and install Simple Custom CSS.
2. Go to Appearance > Custom CSS and paste:

/* Blockquotes */
blockquote {
    word-wrap: normal;
    word-break: normal;
}

Hope that helps. The above snippet can be removed after the next update of Ultra. Thanks 🙂

Hi Andrew – I am having the same issue with block quotes. I just tried your code above in Custom CSS and it is not fixing the problem. Words are getting cut off and not wrapping correctly.

Hi dcseltzer

Please, send a link and we’ll take a look. Thanks.

Thanks. Your Custom CSS has an error, nothing will load after this point:

/* Full Width No Page Title Templates */
body[class*="full-width-no-title-php"].sidebar #primary {
  float: none;
  border-right: none;
  width: 100%;

There is no closing bracket after the width: 100% rule so everything after that is nullified.

Hmm.. I just added a closing bracket & look what it did to my home page – everything is pushed left as if there is a sidebar…

Have you perhaps gone over the rules in Custom CSS? If you remove them all, is the issue resolved?

.sidebar #primary is the issue. It has to do with the rule cascade/order. Just insert this at the very end of your Custom CSS to correct:


.page-template-home-panels #primary {
    width: 100%;
}

OK – so adding the end bracket after width: 100% and adding the last rule you just gave me seems to have fixed BOTH problems.

thanks so much!!

Adding the closing bracket activated the rules below. You weren’t seeing them because they were broken before without the bracket. So, not related to the blockquote challenge. Glad to hear it’s all working now 🙂

All the best.
