I would like to use the 'preformatted' option for the display of category descriptions, but it splits words when the lines of text are too long for the display box. Is there a way to control the formatting within the 'preformatted' display area?

Hi there,

I'm sorry but I don't know which option you are talking about, could you please be more precise and give us a screenshot?

I am using the TinyMCE as the editor for data such as Category description. This gives the format option 'preformatted' for my descriptions, which displays the text of the description in a box on the product listing page when the category is selected. But the text within the box does not wrap at the end of a word, words are split. I have attached a screen shot. You can see that the word 'twentieth' has been split across two lines.

Do I have any control over this?

Third attempt

First time I attached the htm file, the second was a jpg, which I guess was too big.

Trying again.

Hi,

This don't seems to be related on HikaShop, it's probably TinyMCE which is not formatting well the text.
We are just doing an echo of the given string.

Thanks to check on google if other users of TinyMCE encountered this problem.

Thanks for that. I have tried a different editor, Artof, same problem. I am thinking this is a template problem - so I will persue that.

Hi,

Edit your products/categories listing menu/module via the menu Display>Content menus/modules and change the "item box layout" option to "image and description"
