Text Orphans Remover

Descripción

Text Orphans Remover (a.k.a. #NoMoreOrphans™) improves the visual quality of long-form, responsive text by preventing “orphan” words on the last line.

This plugin adds a lightweight script on the front-end only (never in wp-admin). It measures each text block and, when appropriate, replaces the last breaking space with a non‑breaking space.

Default processed elements:
p, li, h1–h6, blockquote, figcaption, dd, dt

You can override the selector via JavaScript:
window.TextOrphansRemoverSelector = ‘p, li, .my-class’;

Instalación

  1. Upload the plugin folder to /wp-content/plugins/ (or upload the ZIP via Plugins Add New).
  2. Activate “Text Orphans Remover”.
  3. Done — it runs automatically on the front-end.

Preguntas frecuentes

Does it work in wp-admin?

No. This plugin never loads in the admin area.

Can I target different elements?

Yes. Set window.TextOrphansRemoverSelector before the script runs (e.g. in your theme’s footer or a small custom plugin).

Will it break inline HTML tags (links, strong, em)?

No. The script updates text nodes only and does not rewrite your HTML markup.
