# Words split in posts & headings

 * With the previous themes that I used, this wasn’t an issue. But after I switched
   to Default Mag, some words break off at the end of the line. For instance, the
   word “Instagram” ends with “Instag” on one line and starts the next line with“
   ram,” rather than having the entire word on one line.
 * This issue is consistent within the individual posts, the headings, the suggested
   post headings etc.
 * I saw on a previous support request that [@themeinwp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/themeinwp/)
   suggested adding the following CSS to Customizer -> Additional CSS section
 * .twp-post .twp-description .twp-articles-title h3 a {
    overflow: hidden; text-
   overflow: ellipsis; display: -webkit-box; -webkit-box-orient: vertical; box-orient:
   vertical; line-clamp: 9; -webkit-line-clamp: 9;
 * I tried this, but unfortunately it didn’t solve the issue. Do you have any other
   suggestions? Thank you for your time.

 * Hello,
 * Thanks for reporting a bug. We’ll soon update the theme with the fix.
 * In the meantime – From your WordPress Dashboard, Navigate to **Appearance ▸ Customize
   ▸ Additional CSS** and add below CSS.
 *     ```
       .twp-articles-title h3 a,
       .twp-feature-post h3 a,
       .twp-inner-title h3 a,
       h3.twp-articles-title a{
       	word-break: break-word;
       }
       ```
   
 * Hope this helps. Do let us know if you have any other questions.

 * Hi, I tried your fix but unfortunately it didn’t work. Hopefully it’ll work when
   the theme is updated.

 * Hello,
 * The updated theme didn’t address this issue, unfortunately. Do you have any updates?
 * Thank you for your time!

 * Hi there,
 * I’ve revisited your website and the issue persists because of a CSS code snippet
   you’ve added on additional CSS fields.
 * Please remove those and everything should work.
 * Kindly refer to [https://prnt.sc/qwa6oo](https://prnt.sc/qwa6oo)

 * Thank you very much for your quick reply. I deleted the coding you originally
   suggested from Appearance ▸ Customize ▸ Additional CSS. But the text still breaks
   up.
 * Do I need to go into the individual stylesheets to remove the text? And, if so,
   could you kindly tell me which one(s)? I did check all the theme files and could
   not find the sheet you were referring to.
 * Thank you again.
