Libre2 Blockquotes
-
Hi There,
I’m using the Libre 2 theme, and would like to reduce the size of blockquotes that are aligned with text. There are blockquotes that I feature in the text, such as quotations from books, and then there are “pull quotes” that are aligned either left or right of the body text. The problem is these are the same font size, and the standard is to have blockquotes smaller than the main text. It’s a little distracting and reduces the usefulness of pull quotes in an article with lots of text quotations.
Is there a way to reduce the font size in the in-text blockquotes, or another tag to use?
Thanks,
Joel

If you have the Premium or Business upgrade http://wordpress.com/plans and use Custom CSS, you can opt to apply custom CSS to a WordPress.com theme.
Note 1: If you have the required upgrade you can use this link https://en.forums.wordpress.com/forum/css-customization#postform so you can create a thread that will appear in the CSS Forum where you will get the help you need with CSS editing.
Note 2: You can also post there prior to purchasing an upgrade to get an answer to whether or not what you want to do can be accomplished via CSS editing.

Thanks for your reply. My question specifically was how I could solve this with the plan I have, i.e. without purchasing an upgrade. If there is an existing option within the Libre2 plan, I would like a way to figureout what it is, like a manual.

Hi there,
You can try inserting code in your HTML editor. You would have to find the right place to paste it in by searching the HTML for “blockquotes” and then add this inside of it:
<blockquotes>style=”font-size: 20px;”</blockquotes>
So the end result should look like this:
<blockquotes>
style=”font-size: 20px;”></blockquotes>

Sorry my markup got messed up.
The end result in the HTML editor should look like this:
“

Ok, since markup is not letting me insert the code porperly for you to see, here is a screenshot:

I should also add that you would have to add the line with style for each blockqoute in your posts and that the value of “20px” can be changed into desired font size.

Thanks, baldfreud. I forgot the proper syntax. It won’t be a big deal to insert these styles for each one, except on a post like I did yesterday which had 4 quotations.
