## Description

Fixes the wrap behavior of the WordPress admin bar when it has too many items. Keep
it neat; don’t spill/overflow into the content.

Check things out on GitHub at [https://github.com/KZeni/Admin-Bar-Wrap-Fix](https://github.com/KZeni/Admin-Bar-Wrap-Fix)

## FAQ

### Shouldn’t this be fixed within WordPress itself?

I would think so. This has been submitted as a patch at [core ticket #44438](https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/28983)&
[core GitHub pull request #1082](https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/1082),
but I figured it would still be beneficial as a plugin to solve things for people
in the meantime.

Really great, as this fixes many strange overflow issues on narrow viewports. The
functionality should be finally merged into WordPress core!

So far, I’ve performed acrobatics to manage the page normally. I have often narrowed
my browser down to tablet size. I was looking for a solution on the Internet. I 
accidentally stumbled upon this plugin. Great. Partial solution to the problem but
I can live with that. Regards,

Love this plugin – it’s straightforward, works great, and solves something that’s
been a long-time frustration of mine. I made two small tweaks for spacing and readability
for my own site, in case they’re of interest: /* Improve spacing and prevent Site
Title from eating WP Logo */ #wpadminbar .quicklinks > ul > li, #wpadminbar .quicklinks.
ab-item { max-width: 100px; } /* Media Query – Min-Width: 1061px */ @media only 
screen and (min-width: 66.3125em) { #wpadminbar .quicklinks > ul > li, #wpadminbar.
quicklinks .ab-item { /* Reset the spacing. */ max-width: initial; text-overflow:
clip; } } Without the max-width, the site title wound up eating the WP logo on the
left side a little bit. Thx so much for the awesome plugin!!
