Updating blockquote CSS

Support
#1

Hey there, I want to slightly modify the blockquote styling. I am adding this to my child theme’s style.css, but the results do not show on the front end. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for the help.

blockquote {
     padding: 1em;
     font-family: inherit;
     font-size: 110%;
     font-style: italic;
     padding-bottom: 5px;
}

Should add - I made sure to clear out all cache and browser cache.

Thanks for moving it. My thought was a community member could point out what I was doing wrong. I’m confident it is my lack of skill and not something wrong in the theme. Anyways. Appreciate any help.

Hi There,

Your custom CSS should work unless something is overwriting it, please provide us the page URL and point us the blockquote element so we can take a look.

Thanks,

Hi There,

I could see that the custom CSS is applying correctly to the blockquotes.

Can you please send us with your screenshots how it looks on your end?

Thanks.

Here is what I see. (Thinking cache, I again cleared all levels of cache I can think of: Cloudfare, WP Rocket, Browser [Chrome]). I’ve checked from multiple IP’s in multiple browsers from multiple devices… seeing the same large text and not custom CSS. Thanks for the help.

Hi there,

Would you mind providing the admin logins of your site in a Secure Note and mentioning where you placed the custom CSS so that we could check it?

Thank you.

Hi,

I checked in chrome, firefox, safari on two different computers and it seems to be working fine.


Can you try another computer

Thanks

Wow. There are too many levels of cache. Your last comment made me convinced it was somewhere on my end. Host was able to clear out Apache cache, and now I am seeing it correctly. Thanks for the help.
