    Hi

    I am not very experienced with wordpress and how the pages are generated,
    however I do know partly how to read and modify code.

    I am just now designing a site using the D5Corporate theme.
    My site is found at http://ascendi.no
    Near the bottom of the page there is an area that uses Blockqute.

    What I want is to use the Blockquote formatting – but without the quote characters.

    When I use the editor and look at the file style.css

    I find this code :

    blockquote:before {
    content:’\0027′;
    font-size:4em;
    line-height:.1em;
    margin-right:.20em;
    vertical-align:-.4em;

    }

    I thought content:’\0027′; is the line that defines the left quote character,
    so I just changed the value there. And saved.

    However when I look at my site nothing has changed.

    My question is,

    am I changing at the right place ?

    If so -why are my updates not showing ?

    Is the style.css read every time the site is called ?

    All tips on how to solve my problem and remove the quotes appreciated.

    Have a great day

    Rune

    WordPress is the most popular and easiest CMS. You must love WordPress.

    For Page Creation you may follow This Tutorial.

    We advised the Developers/Site Owners not to edit the Theme Styling Directly because your customization may be overwritten during next Theme Version Update. We advised to implement any styling within Theme Options. There is a option named Custom Code within Head Area. This customization will not be affected during any Theme Version Updating.

    For your quote issue please paste the following code in the Custom Code within Head Area of your Theme Option.

    Code:
    <style>
    blockquote:after, blockquote:before { content: none; }
    </style>

    Hello
    I was using this on the Simplify Extended, it worked great, until the last update from 23. Apr. 2013, since then it has no effect. Can you help?

    Please use the following replacing the previous code:

    Code:
    <style>
    blockquote:after, blockquote:before, q:after, q:before { content: none; }
    </style>
