Hallo,

We bought Catch Responsive Pro, a very nice theme!

We selected for the “Featured Slider Type” the “Featured Image Slider”. And we added some text in the content box. The problem is that we get words in the slider text, that have been split. For example the German word “gewählt” becomes “gewä-hlt”. The split is wrong (grammar), so we would like to switch this option off. How can this be done?

Thanks

Problem partially solved,

The problem has been partially solved by switching the language in WordPress from Dutch to German. The words are split correctly now when it comes to grammar. The question that remains; is it possible to switch this “split function” off?

@Bert: Can you post in your site URL so that I can check in. Also you can try adding in the following css in “Appearance => Customize => Theme Options => Custom CSS Options” box:
```
.hentry {
	-webkit-hyphens: manual;
	-moz-hyphens: manual;
	hyphens: manual;	
}
```

Halo Sakin,

Thank you very much for the fast response.

For now, I suggest we leave it the way it works. The words are split correct now when the language in WP is put in the same language as the written text. And for small screens I think it is even an advantage to have large words split.

Is the “word split function” in the theme our is it a WP function?

@Bert: This is from Theme but using WordPress default theme css.
