search result page layout problem
-
Im on SE 5.2.1 and using the default serenity theme.
I am wondering why, on a search result the words stick together without a space while in the post itself the second word is on a new line (with a enter in between). It looks terrible and google also shows it like that now in the snipped. First i thought th8is had something to do with the3th party plugin i use but now i also see it on the default search result page. Is this a bug?
Expected result:
I would expect it shows a space in between.

Hmmm. Do you have any third party plugins or customizations? Is that on desktop or something else? Please post according to the stickied guidelines to make bug testing faster.
I tested at our demo and I see proper spacing on a macbook pro, using chrome latest.

I do have 1 active external plugin witch is FAQs plugin form SocialEngineAddons.
But the problem is also on your demo site and in your search result (page). I tried it.
First i went to SocialEngineAddons, they cant help me with this problem. They don't understand the problem. Believe me, i tried over and over to explain it.
Then i found out its also in the core search result page. That's why i post it here now.

Just have a look at the search result when you search for that post.
PICTURES FROM YOUR DEMO SITE:
The key part is that you write some text and then enter to write text on a second line. So not 1 bit paragraph.
Problem shows up in Chrome and Edge and on desktop/mobile and on the google snippets because it just copies it.
Hope this helps.

I have tried to replicate the issue. The only time I can is if I copy and paste your entry. There is something wrong with how you are adding it. Please try actually typing it in and not copy/paste from any editor. Also, please make sure you are hitting Enter after the first line as every time I do, it makes another line even if I use a copy/paste of your example and then hit delete before the second line (to bring it up to the first) and then hit Enter. It then makes the space fine.

Well, i just tried again on your demo and now it went fine. I don't know if there was a update to SE in between when i made that original post and now, that might have fixed some things.
Also on my site it's still a issue. I notice 1 difference now that i check for the 10th time. On here and on the demo when you enter it leaves a bit of space in between the lines. On my site it does not. This might be causing the issue. I think this is the tinymce SocialEngineAddons is using that is causing the problem after all?
Regarding the hitting of enter twice. That's not the problem i think because in the source i can see it creates a "< br >" in the correct way.

Hi Michael,
I have requested the team to do the needful here, I will let you know here once I get an update from the team.
Thanks! -
Hi Michael,
The changes as per your requirement have been made in the search page layout, please recheck once.
Thanks! -
Hi SocialApps.
Your solution to the problem as stated in this post is:
I see you fixed it in the general SE search result page with a new layout. Just expanded mode. Yes, like this you can see the problem no-more.. but if the problem is really gone, i don't think so. The code is still the same and it's just a layout solution.
Just check your own widget, browse result page in expand/hide mode.
I suggest we dont communicate here. I only gave this reply because you stated you fixed it and i wanted to share how you fixed it.
