Hyphenation issues

Indeed, makes it unsightly, I’d like to know too ??

Use this in Custom CSS plugin, or child theme stylesheet in case of child theme.

.entry-content, .widget {
	-webkit-hyphens: none;
	-moz-hyphens: none;
	-ms-hyphens: none;
	hyphens: none;
	word-wrap: normal;
}

Adjust the selector to limit it to certain area like this .entry-content p for <p> in content.

YAY !!! – Nice one, cheers very much.

First I did not think it worked, then thought, no, REFRESH you numpty; then hey presto

Cheers

Awesome! Thank you Paul.

Helped me too – thank you so much!

This was also very helpful to for me too but with my lack of knowledge pertaining too child themes as discussed here and https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/twenty-twelve-hyphenation?replies=17 <—here.

I have created a theme directory labeled twentythirteen-child but and have a notepad document started labeled style.css but I am a little confused on the syntax to put in this file. I know being a child theme i should need to copy and paste the entire style.css parent file but simply only the code i want to change so if you anyone could point me in the right direction i would be very appreciative.

should it look like this
From parent style.css

No. Try:

/*
Theme Name: Twenty Thirteen Child
Template: twentythirteen
*/

@import url(../twentythirteen/style.css);

.entry-content, .widget {
	-webkit-hyphens: none;
	-moz-hyphens: none;
	-ms-hyphens: none;
	hyphens: none;
	word-wrap: normal;
}
