Template:Force wrap/doc
Appearance
This is a documentation subpage for Template:Force wrap. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template can be used where a very long run of text with no spaces is not being wrapped and may cause text to overflow on small displays.
Usage

See also
[edit]- {{nowrap}} prevents wrapping within a single template (i.e. not suitable for relatively complex or lengthy content).
- {{nowraplinks}} ... {{nowraplinks end}} prevents wraps inside links while allowing wraps between links and in normal text. Very useful for link lists and easy to use.
- {{nowrap begin}} ... {{nowrap end}} prevents wraps in both text and links. For the trickier wrapping cases when you need full control, for instance in very complex link lists.
- {{word joiner}} prevents wraps for both two adjacent characters.
- {{avoid wrap}} prevents wraps unless the space is too narrow to display the text on one line.
- {{inline block}} does the same and allows further style customization, but does not automatically add the "avoidwrap" CSS class.
- {{spaces}} produces multiple non-breaking spaces (or a single one).
- {{wrap}} can be used to provide a (brief) exception within a no-wrapping area.
- {{normalwraplink}} allows links to wrap when they otherwise would not.
- {{·}} and {{•}}, spaced and wrap-sensitive interpunct (dot) and bullet.

- In particular, to avoid line wrapping when quoting a passage such as a poem or computer code, see Template:Quote § Line breaks – e.g. Template:Blockquote with "poem" tag.
