All of a sudden, the text in my notes fails to wrap around and the text is simply cut off.
Any suggestions welcome.

It's really hard to investigate from a screenshot. Can you post a URL where we can see this?

Virtually any page with notes, but here are a few: www.adkins.ws/individual.php?pid=I013
www.adkins.ws/individual.php?pid=I21584
www.adkins.ws/family.php?famid=F083
www.adkins.ws/family.php?famid=F012
Strangely, it doesn't seem to happen in every case. Sometimes the pages display normally.

In the case of www.adkins.ws/individual.php?pid=I21584&ged=Adkins.GED
this is caused by a very long word.

Specifically, the URL in the note regarding death.

Thank you. I will dig into the problem a bit more - perhaps URL shorteners.

In webtrees 2, we add "overflow-wrap: break-word;" to all user-contributed text.

It allows the browser to break long words where they would cause an overflow.

Since you are using webtrees 1.7, which is no longer supported, you'll need to find a way to add this yourself.
