    Hi Brajesh, I’m not sure if it is on of Custom Xprofile Fields, but I have an issue with the multi line text area field type.

    When I edit the content in the text field, line shifts are made automatically keeping the content within the text field.

    But when the profile fields are saved, the text is exceeding and overflowing the max width of the text field, and the rest of the fields in that field group.

    If I copy paste text in, it stays nicely within the max width of the field after saving.

    Deactivating all custom CSS does not make any difference to this issue.
    I tried max-width 100% and overflow: auto; but nothing helps.

    Any suggestions for a solution is much appreciated, thanks.

    Regards

    Carsten

    Hi Carsten,
    Thank you for the question.

    The field is default BuddyPress Multiline text area.

    You need to apply the word-break property like this in css

    

.profile-fields .data {
    word-break: break-all;

}

    That should fix it.
