  When I do a pull quote, the horizontal bars on the top and bottom marking the begin and end of the quote are not showing. The quote is just inside a white box without borders.

  Hi there,

  The way this theme works, the standard block quote is grey text without any top/bottom bars. Those only appear when you use special HTML coding (set up by the theme authors) to make your quote pull to the left or the right.

  You can see here in my screenshot, a standard “block quote” and the special formatting for the two “pull quotes” below:

  

  It is possible to get this special formatting, but to do this you will need to use the HTML block, and then enter the code needed to format the quote. Here is some code snippets you can copy and paste to do this. Just replace the sample text with your quote text:

  <blockquote class="alignright">REPLACE WITH YOUR TEXT</blockquote>

  <blockquote class="alignleft">REPLACE WITH YOUR TEXT</blockquote>

  Here’s a video showing how you can copy this code, paste it into your site, and personalize the quote text: https://d.pr/v/CnZhi0

  Hope this helps!

  Oh, I was using the default Pullquote all the time. Works great now. Thank you so much!
