How can I highlight a paragraph of my blog post?

By Mira Maria Mandelartz, 8 years ago. Last reply by Greg Priday, 8 years ago.

Hello,
I want to give the advice part of my blog articles a background color. the editing section allows to change the writing color, not the background though.
How do I arrive there all the same, please?
thanks for helping me to get along.
Your support is highly appreciated.

    Hi Maria

    Sorry for the late reply here. I’ll get one of our team members to code up the custom CSS for you. I’ll post it here as soon as they’re done.

    Hi Maria

    You can use the “blockquote” button in the WordPress editor to control the background color and color of your emphasis text. Highlight the text and click the blockquote button. Then, go to Appearance > Custom CSS and insert:

    /* Blockquotes */

.entry-content blockquote {
    background: #000;
    color: #fff;
    font-style: normal;
    margin-left: 0;
    padding: 10px;
    padding-left: 10px;
    border-left: none;
}

    Change the background color and color to suit your background and text color. Adjust #000 and #fff to your chosen hexadecimal color codes.
