Possible this is the culprit for broken Separator width?

Kai Hao’s suggestion of adding is-style-wide class name to the separator worked, and did restore the lines to their previous width.

However, this is only a patch and not a true fix. I say this for 2 reasons.

(1) The visual editor presents the option of choosing “wide-width” or “full-width” for the separator line. Therefore, the underlying code needs to follow through and display the separator line as selected (wide-width or full-width).

(2) Put simply, it worked perfectly before the upgrade, so *something* changed to make it not work. Something small was missed in the 5.8 update.

This can (and should) be fixed; adding code in the code editor every time, as per Kai Hao’s remedy, is not something I’m interested in doing, especially considering reason #1 above.

I am using the Twenty Twenty-One theme.

Before the 5.8 upgrade, the site displayed full-width separators; now, neither wide-width nor full-width selections work.

How to bring full-width & wide-width separators back – use a child theme, perhaps?

I have “before-and-after” pictures; how do I post them to show the problem? (or are they not needed?)
