Twitter Bootstrap Button Text Word Wrap

Question

For the life of me I am unable to get these twitter bootstrap buttons to text wrap onto multiple lines, they appearing like so.

I cannot post images, so this is what

Answer 1

You can add these style's and it works just as expected.

.btn {
    white-space:normal !important; 
    word-wrap: break-word; 
    word-break: normal;
}

Answer 2

Try this: add white-space: normal; to the style definition of the Bootstrap Button or you can replace the code you displayed with the one below

<div class="col-lg-3"> <!-- FIRST COL -->
  <div class="panel panel-default">
    <div class="panel-body"> 
    <h4>Posted on</h4>
    <p>22nd September 2013</p>
    <h4>Tags</h4>
    <a href="#" class="btn btn-primary btn-xs col-lg-12" style="margin-bottom:4px;white-space: normal;">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.</a>
   <a href="#" class="btn btn-primary btn-xs col-lg-12" style="margin-bottom:4px;white-space: normal;">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.</a>
   <a href="#" class="btn btn-primary btn-xs col-lg-12" style="margin-bottom:4px;white-space: normal;">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.</a>
           </div>
  </div>
</div>

I have updated your fiddle here to show how it comes out.

Answer 3

FWIW, in Boostrap 4.4, you can add .text-wrap style to things like buttons:

   <a href="#" class="btn btn-primary text-wrap">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.</a>

Answer 4

You can simply add this class.

.btn {
    white-space:normal !important;
    word-wrap: break-word; 
}
