[Resolved] Font Size in Quotes

[hari]

Hi Tom,

short question, nothing serious, nothing with priority, just an annoying glitch.

Some time after upgrading to WordPress 4.2.3 and upgrading GP from 1.2.98 to 1.3.06, I recognized, that font-sizes in Quotes – just in Quotes (or Blockquotes)! – became “bigger”.

Means, they now have a larger font-size, than the normal text. And this does definitly not look good!

I did not chance anything in GP, especially nothing in the typography, it definitly came with the updates. And I have no idea, what might have caused this.

My problem is, that I dont know if the WordPress oder Generate Press update is the cause. But I dont want to roll back, just to nail down this rather small problem.

Do you have any idea, what might have caused this? Do you have a solution?

Thanks, Michael

Hi Michael,

Give this little CSS snippet a try:

blockquote {
      font-size: inherit;
}

Thanks, did it!

What caused this behavioral change? WordPress or GP? I guess the CSS above, was the default before.

I added some super basic styling to a couple elements (tables and blockquotes) in a previous version of GP – it was completely basic before so I wanted to add a little something. Some liked it and some didn’t, but either way the CSS to fix it is super simple 🙂

Understood. Thanks! Case closed. 🙂
