Hi,

Is it possible to have blockquote styled something like this:

Also, I am using the latest version of wordpress, generatepress and gp Premium. I also have brought the license which doesn't expire until April 2020.

Kind Regards,

Brian Thompson

Hi there,

I think it should work if you simply copy their HTML:

<div class="notepaper">
  <figure class="quote">
    <blockquote class="curly-quotes" cite="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYLrc9hy0t0">
      The same wind blows on us all.
      The difference in arrival is not
      the blowing of the wind,
      but the set of the sail.
    </blockquote>
    <figcaption class="quote-by">— Jim Rohn</figcaption>
  </figure>
</div>

And the CSS:

.notepaper {
  position: relative;
  margin: 30px auto;
  padding: 29px 20px 20px 45px;
  width: 280px;
  line-height: 30px;
  color: #6a5f49;
  text-shadow: 0 1px 1px white;
  background-color: #f2f6c1;
  background-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(center, cover, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.7) 0%, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1) 90%), -webkit-repeating-linear-gradient(top, transparent 0%, transparent 29px, rgba(239, 207, 173, 0.7) 29px, rgba(239, 207, 173, 0.7) 30px);
  background-image: -moz-radial-gradient(center, cover, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.7) 0%, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1) 90%), -moz-repeating-linear-gradient(top, transparent 0%, transparent 29px, rgba(239, 207, 173, 0.7) 29px, rgba(239, 207, 173, 0.7) 30px);
