editors-style.css

Is there a way to change the editors-style.css so that i can have the classic editor post editor look like my front end blockquotes. The current backend post editor has blockquotes look huge and ugly, and i want to change the css so it matches how i display them in an article. So i achieve an almost wysiwyg post editor, or as close as reasonable.

I used to be able to this with a child theme, but i believe that it is no longer supported to have an editors-style.css in child theme.

But if i hard edit the editors-style.css in the theme, i expect changes are lost with each update ???

Hello,

You can use the custom code CSS for blockquotes and set the custom code in Theme Panel -> Custom Code -> Custom CSS.
Please check this topic with a similar question -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/is-it-possible-that-no-one-has-asked-a-question-about-changing-blockquote-style/ you can edit the style with the tagDiv composer, depending on what you want to achieve.

Thank you!

I think this only addresses the way it is displayed on readers view. Not the post editor where I want it to change to match what is displayed to readers

Hi,

Unfortunately, I didn’t understand exactly, what do you mean? Can you please explain to me again with more details?

Thank you!

I am looking to edit the css for the wordpress post editor so when our editors are writing an article, it will display in the text editor as it will when published.

If i just change the frontend css, or template then this only changes how the article looks to the reader. The editor will still see a different formatting to the text.

Hi,

Unfortunately, it is not an available option, I consider it a fairly easy method to just preview the post to see what the post looks like in the frontend -> https://i.imgur.com/WVi8oBG.png -> https://i.imgur.com/rpITiHV.png

Have a nice weekend!
