blockquote/quote image alignment?
Closed

Comments

  • Arniesairsoft started the conversation

    Just bought your theme, liking it a lot and rebuilding our site design that was many years old.

    Can you advise where the best area is to adjust image alignment for a single post? The default Wordpress images posted are aligning to the left when they normally align centrally. Everything looked fine in wordpress.com when designing the posts and in our old theme. Now the images all went to hang left.

    I am also struggling to find where to customise the block quote or quote text style for posts.

    Any help appreciated.

    Hi,

    Thank you for purchased our theme and loving it.

    1/ As I see you're using images inside a blockquote, that caused the problems.

    But, you can try copy the code below and paste it to the end of Appearance > Customize > Custom CSS box to fix it:

    .post-entry blockquote p[align="center"],
    .post-entry p[align="center"] {
        text-align: center;
    }
    

    2/ Can you tell me what's style you're looking for? Because as I see you've put all your content inside blockquote - it's really not good. But, we should find a solution that works for all the posts since you can't go and edit each postsmile.png

    A tip for you: 

    1/ I see you didn't select a menu for your main navigation, let's do that by go to Appearance > Menus > select your primary menu > scroll down and check to "Primary Menu" at the bottom.

    2/ As I can see you didn't set a featured image for all your posts. You should do that for all the posts in the future to get the best results - check this image for more

    3/ You can go to Appearance > Customize > Posts Layouts > Standard & Classic > and check to "Display Post Excerpt Instead of Full Content" to make your posts on the homepage shorter - just show the post excerpt.

    4/ You can select the layout for your homepage via Customize > Homepage > General > Homepage Layout

    Best Regards,

    Thank you!

    We are upgrading our site, it's run for years. We add news sent in from companies of all forms. If we quote their material it's added as an inserted quote with their images to make it clear what they've said. We also add reviews and articles of our own.

    After a forced move to the latest version of PHP and a Wordpress system update we've had to ditch the very old theme we had and buy a new one. This led us to purchasing your theme as it looked to be very customisable. I am bringing a site that's now run for 20 years into a more modern look :) With so much archived content, it's a bit of a jump changing posting methods.

    With that in mind we want to get the posts into a more modern format shortly but we need to post content for a week or so in the new style so we can change to a more modern look using your readily customisable theme.

    I also have several hundred articles and reviews which are inside Wordpress but need to be sorted and added correctly into a document structure of some form.

    I would like to change the blockquote text to the same text style as the rest of the posts just in a different colour. I presume I can do that with the custom CSS again easily?

    Currently it's italic and a different font and size by default.

    Hi,

    Yeah, please add more this code to Customize > Custom CSS to do that:

    .post-entry blockquote, 
    .post-entry blockquote p, 
    .wpb_text_column blockquote, .wpb_text_column blockquote p, 
    .woocommerce .page-description blockquote, 
    .woocommerce .page-description blockquote p{
        font-size: inherit;
        color: inherit;
        font-style: inherit;
        line-height: 1.5;
        margin-bottom: 17px;
    }
    

    And if you want to remove the quote icon here - please add more this code to Customize > Custom CSS:

    .post-entry blockquote, .wpb_text_column blockquote, .woocommerce .page-description blockquote{ padding-left: 0;  }
    .post-entry blockquote:before, .wpb_text_column blockquote:before, .woocommerce .page-description blockquote:before{ content: none; display: none; }
    

    Best Regards,
