Text Orphans Remover (a.k.a. #NoMoreOrphans™) improves the visual quality of long-form, responsive text by preventing “orphan” words on the last line.
This plugin adds a lightweight script on the front-end only (never in wp-admin). It measures each text block and, when appropriate, replaces the last breaking space with a non‑breaking space.
Default processed elements:
p, li, h1–h6, blockquote, figcaption, dd, dt
You can override the selector via JavaScript:
window.TextOrphansRemoverSelector = ‘p, li, .my-class’;
