Hi,

I run through this problem over and over again. I’ll copy some text from my Mac “PAges” and paste it in my column/row of X theme and it’s pasted all weird with no proper alignment. It looks as if the text all of sudden decides to skip a row and when i try to backspace or ajust it manually, it doesn’t do any good. So i’m stuck having to retype every word one by one.

What can be done team?

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in! Your given username is not correct so we couldn’t check the backend.

However if you just copy paste from any rich editor like Pages or MS Word then it might contain some formatting that might break the layout. In that case paste the text in to a simple editor like Text/Notepad and then copy and paste it to the WordPress editor.

Meantime you can try adding this under Custom > CSS in the Customizer.

.x-text p {
  word-break: break-all;
  word-wrap: break-word;
}

Hope this helps.

Cheers!

Hi There,

Upon checking your setup, there were no misalignment or any overlaps. Would you mind sharing us the process on how to get the version where it is misaligned? Misalignment must be cause of copying it from ms word try copying it from textpad or notepad so that it would not change it property.

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks.

I tried using

.x-text p {
word-break: break-all;
word-wrap: break-word;
}

And it give me a somehow better format but as picture 1 attached shows…all the words are broken down and the end of the sentence.

As for Copying and pasting it in TEXTedit for MAC, it did nothing. i pasted it in text and copied it again and pasted it back in my row/column and it gave me another weird alignment.
I looked at some similar problems and they say to use the function “Paste and Match Style”…tried it also and does nothing!!

Driving me nuts!! i have more than 15 pages of text for my website to use and none of it can blend in like i want.

Hi,

The picture you attached has no misalignment nor overlaps because it is the wrong section/page you are looking at. Here is the right page:

***please see attached screenshot for exact location of errors. The misaligned section are written in ENGLISH.

Thanks team!

Hi,

Sorry for the confusion.

Please remove the css code.

There is some formatting in your text that were copied over that is causing the overlaps.

To fix it, I copied the text and pasted it in notepad then copied it back to your text element.

By pasting the text it notepad it removes any hidden formatting in your text and convert your text to a standard format.

Kindly check on your end.

Thanks
