Styling pull quotes/block quotes

[jeanetteleblanc]

How much customization is possible for pull quotes/block quotes.

I love the looks of these ones from teen vogue

But not sure how difficult this is - I"m a layperson, not a designer/coder

Hi Jeanette,

Not much, you can add simply add a class to your blockquote element.

Then add a background to it using css.

Add this in Theme Options > CSS

.my-quote {
   background-image: url(quote.jpg);
   background-color:red;
   background-position:top left;
}

Change quote.jpg with the url of the quote image.
