Want to change block quotes so they are not centered

Posted in: Newspaper

I know there has been a lot of posts here about changing the big blue all caps blockquotes in the theme. It is my understanding that you cannot edit block quotes in the default post themes that come with Newspaper. I added some custom CSS for blockquotes to the “Add CSS” in the customizer, but it did not completely override the default and was unreadable.

As instructed here many times, I went into a custom single post template and changed the blockquote font settings, but it remains centered, which I don’t want. How do I change it so it is flush left?

Please note, I use Classic Editor, NOT Gutenberg. I don’t have access to the “Editor” function in the “Customization” tab.

Hi,
This is the closest I can do using the image as suggestion: – https://i.imgur.com/YpmpRW8.png
.single .tagdiv-type blockquote {
background: #ececec;
padding: 36px;
}
.post blockquote p {
font-size: 17px;
line-height: 28px;
text-align: justify;
color: #555;
}

The code an be adjusted and it needs to be set in the theme panel > custom code > custom css
I hope this will help you!

Hi Viju, sorry for the late answer.
I checked the website and now I see that the ads are correctly adjusted – https://i.imgur.com/BqHGoZg.png I think that you already adjusted the ads.
Thank you!
