    Hi there,


    I don't know where I can edit the format for blockquote. For example, I don't like the uppercase, nor the higher font size. I would just like some italic fonts, a small indent and ideally some quotation symbol. If I know where to edit this , I could do this myself.


    Thanks.

    Andreas.

    Thanks. This works. The question is how to change this setting for all precious posts in the website easily? How can I make the default style from 1 to 2 (or 3) in existing posts. There are thousands of them.

    I could do it in SQL database if it would help, but don't know how.

    another related question would be that if the selected text when pressing the "blockquote" would automatically go into the specific field. If there are lines in there or bold or any other formatting. Blocquotes are not used for short quotes, but sometimes for longer book excrepts of a size of a paragraph or so.

    Hi,

    1/ To do that, please try add more this code to Customize > Addinational CSS to do that:

    blockquote, q{
    position: relative;
    padding: 15px 15px 15px 24px;
    background-color: #f5f5f5;
    border: none;
    overflow: hidden;
    margin: 0 0 20px 0;
    font-weight: normal;
    text-transform: none;
    font-size: 16px;
    color: #888;
    text-align: left;
}
blockquote:before, q:before{
    left: 0;
    width: 4px;
    top: 0;
    z-index: 1;
    background: #01579b;
    margin: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    height: 100%;
}
blockquote:after, q:after{
    content: none;
}
blockquote .author, q .author{
    font-size: 13px;
    margin-top: 10px;
}
blockquote .author span{
    position: relative;
    padding-right: 10px;
    color: #01579b;
}
blockquote .author span:after {
    content: "";
    position: absolute;
    top: 50%;
    width: 90px;
    height: 0;
    border-top: 1px solid;
    left: 100%;
    opacity: 0.5;
}

    2/ I think you can give it a try

    Thank you very much. This is the style 3. Now, I know how and where to edit the default value for all posts. Very useful. Many thanks!
