Justify option/short-cut not working after wordpress 6.6

bug confirmed on 6.6.1 too, feature enabled but no sign of justify option in editor

The same is happening to me. I was happily using the justify feature a few months ago and now the option doesn’t appear in the dropdown menu anymore. It was my main reason for downloading the plugin.

I think the support team is not active for some reason. Not been responding to peoples’ questions for a while.

I have the same. Tried 3 different plugins to get a justify button, but none of the plugin’s options show up in the editor. Also on 6.6.1. Very frustrating. I also wonder why this feature has ever been removed from the editor.

WordPress has their own option to justify text, but now we have to pay extra for it. I may be wrong, I believe this is why it has been removed. I hope that it gets remedied soon.

I’ve found out that you can still justify your text if you switch to code editor and manually add class=”has-text-align-justify” to <p> html tags.

@martijnox justify option has been removed since 4.7 release, here’s an explanation why

@toxin that’s good to know, but impractical for non-tech savvy users (which is the reason why most of us deployed this plugin, i guess)

i wonder why @munirkamal can’t find 5 minutes to tell us if we can hope for a fix of if the plugin has been abandoned or what…

I also have problems after updating WordPress (there is no problem on 6.5.5).

Same problem here, too. The “justify” option is checked but no longer visible in the editor.
Could support give us updates on this issue?

Thanks

in the meantime, another alternative to manually add a class to paragraphs could be to add a CSS rule to the theme’s stylesheet file, which targets all paragraphs except those with specific alignment:

/* add justify to post paragraphs */
body.single-post #main .entry-content p:not(.has-text-align-right, .has-text-align-center) {
text-align: justify;
}

the rule above applies to all paragraphs which are not center- or right-aligned within the main content area of a single post template.
