## Description

This plugin converts spaces to HTML non-breaking space entities (ie. `&nbsp;`) in
the content, excerpt, comments, text widget, and WooCommerce short description as
required by French language punctuation rules.

If the `<!--:fr-->` HTML tag is found (used by some multilingual plugins), non-breaking
spaces are added only between the `<!--:fr-->` and `<!--:-->` HTML tags.

There are no plugin settings – simply install and activate the plugin.

Le potentiel de ce plugin est certain quand on veut respecter la ponctuation française…
Hélas, mes divers essais avec Elementor ont été infructueux…Peut-être que je ne 
sais pas faire, d'où ma note de 3 étoiles.Si on me donne la solution, je passe la
note à 5 étoiles !!! Cordialement..

Extension d'une redoutable efficacité ! Gère les ponctuations, mais aussi la séparation
des milliers et l'insécable qui précède certaines devises.Contrairement à ce qui
est dit dans un avis précédent, fonctionne parfaitement avec Elementor. Bravo !

simonac, y marche pas dans Elementor !!! Câline de bine C'est tu bhen compliqué

page web avec une typo qui's'tien d'boute bref Au plaisir de te lire si tu passes
à l'action chu même prêt à payer un ti-montant, genre moins de 50$ 😉 Amitiés Marc

Bonjour, je suis déçu. J'utilise l'éditeur Elementor et le thème OceanWP dans ce
contexte, le plugin ne place pas d'espace insécable ! Est un problème corrigeable
par le concepteur ? Par ailleurs, pour ceux chez qui ça fonctionne, le plugin met-
il des espaces insécables comme séparateur des milliers, là où j'ai souligné_: 2_320_000_?
Robert.
