    Hi, how can I change the quote style on the CSS file?

    The class that I see on the CSS is ".blockquote"
    but it seems that when I create the block on WordPress, the quote block is using the class ".wp-block-quote blockquote"

    So, some random font appears....

    You can see it at the end of this example: https://justsoantsy.com/three-is-way-better-way-to-show-example/

    Do any of you know by any chance? Thanks!

    That page keeps crashing in Firefox. And it seems it's crashing pertaining to AMP.

    Hello leoleoso,
    You may need to update the css located in /essence-pro/lib/gutenberg/front-end.css. The class is wp-block-quote.

    Thank you, Walter! That worked.
    This might be a very silly question (designer here learning to play with CSS) but, I ever update this theme, do I have to worry about this reverting and losing all these modifications?

    Well, in theory yes.
    If you update the theme (manually) then you will lose the modifications. Just keep in mind that StudioPress child themes don't update automatically.

    Oh boy! That's not good. Is that why people have a child CSS file?
    What solution would you recommend?

    In this case, you are using a child theme (what you call a child CSS file) so this is not an option.

    If the changes are small, I would suggest adding the css in the Custom CSS section in the customizer.

    If you need to make a considerable amount of changes, then Design Palette Pro is a good option.

    So literally all the changes that I have been making to justsoanty.com, to look the way it does were by editing the CSS file. Do I now need to identify all these changes and move them to the Custom CSS section?

    How do I install Design Palette Pro?

    Not necessarily. StudioPress don't update the child themes often. The last ones I have seen are converting them to the Gutenberg editor. Most of the updates are done to the Genesis framework so I would say you are good.

    Just remember that if you ever need to update the child theme, then yes, you will need to port over the changes you made.
