Hi,

something strange: In the blogquotes the font is shown bigger than in the text. My setting ind the typography is:

body -> arimo -> 17 px

So everything should have the same size??? Please tell me, what to do!

Hi there,

The font-size of blockquote is set to 1.2em in GP by default which is why it's larger than the paragraph text.

You can change it by targetting a custom element with the dynamic typography system:

Let me know if this helps :)

Thank you! This is what I tried yesterday, but in the menu of your screenshot is no "blogquote" on my site. I just looked once again, but it is not there. :-(

Kind regards,

Hi Anne-Barbara,

In the menu for the Target Element, choose Custom. Then set the target to blockquote as shown in the screenshot by Leo. That should allow you to alter the font-size of the blockquotes.

Hi, thank you for that hint, I didn't see this! I just tried it, but nothing changes, even if I set 6 px...

Thank yo very much! I sent you the required Infortmation in the other field. Kind regards, Anne-Barbara

Hi there,

can you share a link to a page or post where we can see the blockquote ?

Try this CSS:

blockquote {
    font-size: 1em;
}

Thank you, this worked! :-)

Kind regards,
Anne-Barbara

Glad to hear that
