Readme github.com/aoshiftctrl/shy-shortcode ↗

Lightweight WordPress plugin that registers a [shy] shortcode for inserting soft hyphens (­) in block editor content.

Why?

German compound words like Donaudampfschifffahrtsgesellschaft break layouts. Soft hyphens let the browser decide where to break — invisible when not needed, hyphenated when the line demands it.

Usage

Donau[shy]dampf[shy]schiff[shy]fahrts[shy]gesellschaft
