Apply them to your theme, which should be in my-templates/themename/style.css. I agree, kakumei needs default blockquote support. I'll add a trac ticket or sumthin'. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/blockquote#post-9243 Mon, 23 Jul 2007 15:41:37 +0000 azizpoonawalla 9243@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I just installed bbpress yetserday on a new domain and have integrated it with wordpress using the plugin, etc. I also have found that the default template has no blockquote support. Even by including the blockquote definition given above by Trent verbatim in my bb-admin/style.css file does no good, here is a view source excerpt of the source file:</p> <p><code>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;[Shakir 5:57] O you who believe! do not take for guardians those who take your religion for a mockery and a joke...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;</code></p> <p>as a test... </p> <blockquote><p>testing blockquote here in bbpress support</p></blockquote> <p>nope. above line doesnt render in blockquoted indent either. </p> <p>i think the problem is the insertion of &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; tags around every paragraph. Since blockquote is an inline style, the p tags override it. we could get around this by using a div class=blockquote kind of construction instead but wouldt it be nicer if blockquote just worked out of the box? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/blockquote#post-2321 Sat, 16 Dec 2006 03:23:27 +0000 bakedlogdotcom 2321@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>yes thank you! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/blockquote#post-2215 Mon, 11 Dec 2006 16:47:41 +0000 Trent 2215@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>You should be able to change your style.css to reflect how you want your blockquote to work. I changed mine and see no problems with it.
