## Description

Silbentrennung is a simple WordPress plugin that activates hyphenation globally 
on your website. This ensures that text across your site is automatically hyphenated
based on the language settings of your website, improving readability and text appearance
on smaller screens.

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/silbentrennung` directory, 
    or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress.
 3. Enjoy automatic text hyphenation across your site!

## FAQ

### Does this plugin support all languages?

The effectiveness of the `hyphens: auto;` CSS property depends on the browser’s 
language support. Most modern browsers support a wide range of languages.
