Changing font of block quotes

Hi

I installed site origin CSS. It is awesome, and made me super-productive!

But I can’t seem to find the font of block quotes. I am using BasePress theme. When I selected a blockquote or blockquote p, I don’t see the font or font style displayed. I have pasted what I see below

.entry-content p
blockquote p
p
*

line-height: 26px
font-size: 22px
margin: 0 0 1em
box-sizing: border-box


blockquote
*

padding: 0 1em
box-sizing: border-box

I traversed up all the way to body, and couldn’t find font or font-style anywhere

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

    Hi Arunrajgopalan,

    Do you have a public URL where we can take a look at what’s going on?

    Hi Arun,

    Okay so I’ve had a quick look and the blockquote is actually making use of the theme’s default font (which is applied to the body). You should be able to bypass the default theme styling by applying new styling directly to blockquote p selector.

    Hi Alex

    I am not so sure. I may have confused the issue by setting blockquote p in my custom css before you looked. I have removed that now in case you look again.

    You will notice the blockquote p is coming from style.css which according to web inspector has
    blockquote p {
    font-size: 22px;
    line-height: 30px;
    font-weight: 400;
    font-style: italic;
    text-align: center;
    text-transform: uppercase;
    color: #cb2027;
    word-wrap: break-word; }

    Thats coming from style.css:2724

    But the custom css editor doesn’t show me that style anywhere in the heirarchy. Its either a bug or maybe there is another place i have to look in the custom css editor ?

    Thanks
    Arun
