 * Hi!
 * When I add a word in the exceptions list in the settings, it still have a `­`
   entity (an ACF field filtered as text).
 * Any idea?
    Does this setting work for you?
 * Thanks!

 * Hi [@theamnesic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/theamnesic/)! Have you tried
   to clear the cache (browser and/or your server’s page cache if it has one)? If
   you’ve already done that, can you please post a screenshot of your hyphenation
   settings and a link to an example page?

 * Sorry pepe, didn’t see your replies!
 * I still have this issue with the exceptions.

 * I have a doubt : the exceptions list is to cut a word that should not have been,
   or exclude a word from hyphenation (a company name, for exemple) ?
 * We can’t exclude a word on the general scope tab, that’s why I’m not sure.
 * Thanks!

 * I’ve reopened the thread, [@theamnesic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/theamnesic/).
   Can you link to an example page with the problem? I’d like to be able look at
   the source code generated. I suspect that’s an issue with the CSS property `hyphens`
   set to `auto` instead of `manual`.

 * Unfortunately I can’t show you the source code now, the website is still in développement…
 * But I can confirm that there is no hyphens property in any of my CSS files.
 * Tell me how I can help!

 * [@theamnesic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/theamnesic/) please make a 
   screenshot of that part of the page source code in Chrome (not another browser,
   Chrome shows `­` decoded in the source view, other browsers don’t). As for
   the `hyphens` property, don’t check the CSS files, look at what the browser applies.
   It might be the default setting.

 * I’ll look further into. I’ve tried the fragment `et architecto asperiores ut.`
   in the underlying PHP-Typography library with French hyphenation patterns and
   the exception works as expected:
 *     ```
       [ 'et architecto asperiores ut.', 'et ar­chi­tec­to as­pe­riores ut.', [], 'fr', false, true, false, true ],
       [ 'et architecto asperiores ut.', 'et ar­chi­tec­to asperiores ut.', [ 'asperiores' ], 'fr', false, true, false, true ],
       ```
   
 * The first string is the input, the second the expected result, the array the 
   list of exceptions, the the language code, and then various checkboxes for titles,
   all caps, mixed-case, compound words. (All minimum lengths are set to 2 for the
   test, to maximize the number of generated hyphens.)

 * Maybe check again for caching issues on various levels (wp-Typography’s built-
   in cache should auto clear, but you can do so manually from the settings page
   to make sure; also full-page caches might affect the issue).
