Hi,

I can’t seem to get the blockquote typograhpy working for this template. I am using:

<div class=”blockquote”><blockquote>my quote text</blockquote></div>

but it doesn’t seem to format the quote at all. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Same for me on a non modified template, none of the blockquote styles show up. Trying to use the blockquote in a module. Any hints appreciated!

A site url would be a good start here, and maybe a pm with log in info to check out more

My URL is http://ridgeschool.co.za.dedi24b.your-server.co.za/index.php

The blockquote should be the last sentence of the main content item on the front page.

Hi simstim,

The blockquote tag no problems, i think you don’t read user guide. You need make the blockquote width format.


<blockquote><span class="open">The</span> Ridge School. Where boys are known and
<span class="close">grown.</span></blockquote>

Hi jay,

use the HTML editor which should pop up by pressing the appropriate button of your WYSIWYG editor. You can then paste any code and save it. Then you should see the changes in your regular WYSIWYG editor.

I found this problematic as well, which usually isn’t the cae with any of these templates. To get just the open blockquote (no end image) use:
<blockquote>
<span class=”open”>First</span>
word of sentence, said Mr. Smith….
</blockquote>
