    Hi!
    I have a small (beginners)problem with some text i need to fit into a box :)
    Please see: http://www.stichtingjua.org/press/ and look for the 4 green boxes VIDEO VISIE MISSIE NIEUWS / VIDEO VISION MISSION NEWS.

    You’ll see my problem right away, the text needs max 2 or 3 lines and then the arrow below the text in the box.

    Thank you very much for your help and tips!
    Greetings,
    Tom.

    A Codepen demo would be much more help.

    It’s very hard to debug code that’s only visible when we use developer tools to inspect sites.

    The most obvious solutions are to shorten the text or make the boxes bigger.

    Alternatively, give yourself more room by making the image in the box smaller.

    Hey, sorry i didn’t mention, it can be cut off after 3 lines, doesn’t have to show the full text as it’s just a link to the post. Any other ideas then?
    I’ll look into CodePen, see if i get it.
