Title: Hover text outside image cell Last modified: May 4, 2026 --- # Hover text outside image cell * Resolved [neilslaterphotography](https://wordpress.org/support/users/neilslaterphotography/) * (@neilslaterphotography) * [1 week ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hover-text-outside-image-cell/) * For some months now I’ve had the problem that the text caption popup misses the last 2 to 3 characters as they go into the white cell border. Please tell me how I prevent this. Thanks. * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fhover-text-outside-image-cell%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) * Thread Starter [neilslaterphotography](https://wordpress.org/support/users/neilslaterphotography/) * (@neilslaterphotography) * [1 week ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hover-text-outside-image-cell/#post-18898374) * I’ve tried adding this CSS as per the instructions on your FAQs and it doesn’t work: * “.modula .modula-items .figc p.description { padding: 25px; }” * Thread Starter [neilslaterphotography](https://wordpress.org/support/users/neilslaterphotography/) * (@neilslaterphotography) * [1 week ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hover-text-outside-image-cell/#post-18898414) * The hover effect I set works fine when I’m looking at each gallery in the Page Editor within WordPress, but not when I come out and just view the page. No matter what CSS I add (whether globally or at the gallery level) it does not have any effect, even though it appears in the “view source” of the page correctly. * Thread Starter [neilslaterphotography](https://wordpress.org/support/users/neilslaterphotography/) * (@neilslaterphotography) * [6 days, 21 hours ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hover-text-outside-image-cell/#post-18899372) * It’s not local caching that’s the issue as I’ve tried multiple browsers and machines. Also, moving Modula to Troubleshooting mode (hence all other plugins disabled) does not fix it. * Plugin Support [Andrei Cristea](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andreic86/) * (@andreic86) * [6 days, 20 hours ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hover-text-outside-image-cell/#post-18899410) * Hello [@neilslaterphotography](https://wordpress.org/support/users/neilslaterphotography/), * Can you please let me know what Hover effect you are using for your gallery? * Regarding the CSS adjustment, you could try something a bit more specific, for example: jtg-277.modula-gallery .figc .jtg-description {padding: 35px !important;} * Please try adding this and testing the way the hover text is shown for your images.

I’m using Pufrobo. And all works fine with it in the Page Editor… I’ve just added that CSS you provided now (globally) via the “Customising Additional CSS” option. Result: no change (purged wordpress and CDN cache again). So, I’m concluding something is messing up the CSS between the editor page source and the “view”/live version…. But I see that the CSS that you gave me is embedded into the source on the page now…. - This reply was modified 6 days, 19 hours ago by [neilslaterphotography](https://wordpress.org/support/users/neilslaterphotography/). * Plugin Support [Andrei Cristea](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andreic86/) * (@andreic86) * [6 days, 18 hours ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hover-text-outside-image-cell/#post-18899546) * Hello again [@neilslaterphotography](https://wordpress.org/support/users/neilslaterphotography/), * Would it be possible to submit a contact request using our form here: [https://wp-modula.com/contact-us/](https://wp-modula.com/contact-us/) * So we can get a closer look at this and investigate this further?
