Hi there,
I use a theme from Genesis on my existing website and am testing Newspaper to look at moving to your platform. One issue I have run into is not being able to mimick the quotations ” feature I regularly make use of. Instead, your theme has numerous options, but I need to keep the traditional manner WordPress displays quotes – ie the text indents and shows on quotation.
How can I recreate this basic feature so that when I switch over, all my previous citations with quotes do not go to all caps, center justify, blue with big font. I want to avoid that when I switch. Here are two examples. One if from my existing site. The second is from my test citation. Same article.

I made some adjustments on the quotes on this test theme, but I still cannot figure out how to change the color or remove the center justify. http://newspapertest.wpengine.com/2016/09/27/congressman-says-veterans-moochers-pretenders/
Hello blk709,
If you want to change the blockquote settings, please notice that you can do that from Theme panel, Theme fonts, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/YHKDvG32
Thanks for your understanding!
Sorry, chiming in here, since I want to change the quotation in bbpress, the blue centered blockquote doesn’t look right in a forum. I can alter the font size etc in the theme panel, but not that the text is centered and blue.
Hi,
Please provide a link to such a blockquote and I will provide the proper css code to modify it.
Thank you!
Thanks, is there the possibility of a private mail or hidden information — since the website is still in development I don’t want to post it in public.
Please send it to us via email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide a link to this topic so I can identify you.
Thanks.
@tagDiv team. I worked through using the default blockquote feature, but I cannot figure out two things.
1. How do I change it from center to right-indent like normal WordPress themes?
2. How do I change the color of the text for just the default blockquote? I want it to basically be the same color as the content but possibly a slightly lighter shade of gray.
Here is an example from the dev site page: http://newspapertest.wpengine.com/2016/09/30/breaking-rima-nelson-new-phoenix-va-director-has-skeletons-in-closet/
Hello,
Our theme provides multiple blockqote styles besides the default one. You can see the quote styles you can choose here: http://screencast.com/t/LKLNL0iQjzm
As for the color, the block quote will grab the theme accent color. If you want to change the color for it, you will have to use css.
Try this code:
.td-post-content blockquote p{
color:red!important;
}
You can add it in the theme panel->custom css box.
Thank you!
