Description

Description

I've noticed when editing entries that if the author username/email address is pretty long then it gets cut off and doesn't wrap. I'm pretty sure this has only recently started happening though.

Additional info
  • Craft version: 2.6.3002
  • PHP version: 7.1.13

Research direction

Reproduce this in the entry editor using an author username or email address that is long enough to be clipped, on the reported Craft 2.6.3002 and PHP 7.1.13 versions if available. Trace the author field's presentation from the editor entry point and verify that the complete value wraps rather than being cut off.
