WordPress
WordPress is the most used Content Management Systems in the world.
Glyphs
Soft Hyphen
A soft hyphen is basically an optional hyphen. When inserting into a word, you’re basically telling the program to break here if necessary only.
Non-Breaking Hyphen
A non-breaking hyphen is a glyph which shows a hyphen but does not wrap to a new line.
Non-Breaking Space
A space between two words which does not wrap to a new line.
Keyboard Shortcuts
Line Breaks
The difference between both line breaks is that one creates a new paragraph and therefore a gap between both text lines, and the other one only moves the following to the next line without creating a gap.
Soft Line Break (Shift + Enter)
Line 1
Line 2
Hard Line Break (Enter)
Line 1
Line 2
