Description

While fixing #36346 I noticed that all Bundled Themes have some sort of word-wrap issues when using long non-breaking text strings. While this might be an edge case issue, I believe that it warrants fixing. Also, there doesn't seem to be any backwards compatibility issues.

In order to better track this issue in each theme, I am separating #36346 into separate tickets per theme.

Fixes word-wrap issues

  • Keywords has-patch needs-testing added

46700.diff adds

-webkit-hyphens: auto;
-moz-hyphens: auto;
hyphens: auto;
word-wrap: break-word;

to these selectors:

.site-title,
.site-description

to prevent horizontal scrolling when long non-breaking text strings are used.

However, hyphens: auto; currently only works in Firefox. Unfortunately nothing worked for me in Chrome, IE11 or Edge.

This patch was tested on a Windows 10 machine, in Firefox, Chrome, IE11 and Edge browsers

Testing in other OS's and browsers would be appreciated.

Per input in today's bugscrub, @dswebsme looking to test this on a Mac and update later today.

Patch looks good on Mac.

Tested in Chrome, Safari and Firefox.

Tested Site Title, Site Description, Post Title, Page Title, Content and Comments with non-breaking strings.

Mac results reflect AFTER screenshots captured by @ianbelanger.

Noting an edge case where pages with long non-breaking titles added to a menu result in horizontal scrolling. This could be addressed in a separate issue as menus can be edited via the UI to solve the issue.

Thanks for testing @dswebsme.

I'm marking this for commit

Just wanted to note that there are some previous discussions on long non-breaking text strings in bundled themes: #25008, #25232, #29971, all closed as wontfix due to being an edge case. Should we revisit those discussions before making a decision on commit here?

I added a comment to #36346 re: the previous tickets closed as wontfix -- it seemed like it'd be easiest to centralize that discussion in one spot. Any feedback/thoughts would be appreciated there!

#10 @laurelfulford

Thanks for tackling this @ianbelanger! I figured I could check these over while this issue is discussed in #36346 :)

46700.diff looks good to me! Similar to my comment in #46704, what do you think about adding the -ms- prefix to hyphens as well, for Edge and IE 10-11?

#11 @ianbelanger

  • Keywords close added; commit removed
  • Milestone 5.2 deleted
  • Resolution set to wontfix
  • Status changed from assigned to closed

As per the discussion in #36346, I am closing this as a wontfix
