 * Hello!
 * Well, first of all: That’s one of the greatest plugins I found … incredible stuff!!
   THANK YOU!!
 * The plugin works well, I use it for my site in german. Although I think it doesn’t
   work within blockquote-tags. May be I’m wrong, but I tried and resized the browser-
   window — all text is rendered, just this in blockquotes seamed to be not.
 * I tested it just on my smartphone, too. Same. So I guess I have to set an option
   or something like that? I’ve been gone through them but didn’t find something
   that looks like belonging to blockquotes.
 * But what a look of my posts now — whow!!
 * I’m really … beeindruckt. 🙂

 * Ok, with a little help from my friends 😉 the problem was solved:
 * In my themes style.css, for blockquote was hyphens set to none:
 *     ```
       .blockquote {
          hyphens: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * This I set in my child-theme to
 *     ```
       .blockquote {
          hyphens: manual;
       }
       ```
   
 * and it works!
 * Well, I set all my hyphens-rules to manual now. But I have to find out, that 
   the plugin doesn’t set hyphens, where I would expected them. But I looked further
   and found an option for hyphenating, which doesn’t make sense in German: »Allow
   hyphenation of words that begin with a capital letter.« I’ve activated this (
   my site is in german) and then it works.
 * So, I was happy! But looking on another page, I saw a hyphenation of a proper
   name. Uff! What happend now? But a look in the general settings shows the possibility
   to deactivate the hyphenation on css-class-names. Just listing my class, that
   wraps proper names, there and then: working!
 * Thanks to [@pputzer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pputzer/) for that marvelous,
   exciting plugin — and for users: check the options well! 😉
