usage: {{ object.content|wordbreak:"10" }} This means if any word is 10 characters or longer, a `­` will be placed every 10 characters. This is to break long words which may break the appearance of a page. The output of this is HTML safe as the content has been conditionally escaped.
If you have long words (no spaces) that are so long that it's messing up your design, add a 0-width space in the word every X chars. Usage: Step 1. Inside your app's directory, create dir called 'templatetags'. In that directory, create a .py file (say 'app_extras.py'). Make sure you make this a python module, make an empty the init .py (with the 2 underscores on each side). Step 2. Inside template (make sure app is on INSTALLED_APPS list in settings.py): {% load app_extras %} Step 3. Enjoy! {{ some_long_word_with_no_breaks|zerowidthspace_separator:25 }}
