    Hi. I have observed after activating the theme that code preformatted blocks get wrapped if the text doesn’t fit the size. In other themes I have used this custom css code:

    pre {
display: block;
padding: 9.5px;
margin: 0 0 10px;
font-size: 12px;
line-height: 1.42857143;
overflow:auto;
text-align:left;
color: #333333;
background-color: #f5f5f5;
border: 1px solid #cccccc;
border-radius: 4px;
}

    But with standard the overflow part doesn’t work.

    Thanks.

    Hi Juanma!

    Can you please send me a link to a page with an example, where this is happening?

    Hi Daniel.

    Thanks for your answer. Take a look at this post, in the second code block.

    Hi!

    If you want to have the text wrap around the code, you can try to add a float to the pre tag styling:

    pre {
    float: left;
}
