Where can I change the quote box background colours?

[DoctorWatsOn]

It looks like it's called the 'blockquote', but I've searched in Style Properties and be buggered if I can find the little devil, it's doing my head, please can someone rescue me here?

I hate pink!

Top man!

About the only section I didn’t look in :facepalm: @ self - thanks for restoring my sanity!

I think I am going to have to decline your very kind offer, I can hardly move around this place as it is - those little buggers are taking over.

 

[ArnyVee]

Thanks for this. Was looking too.

Also, where do you change the size of the quote 'box'? I'd like to make it a little wider and closer to the full length of the message area.

Style Properties -> BB Code Elements -> BB Code Block -> Margin Right

Thanks Brogan.

One more thing, how do I add a little space between the quote box and the message text?

 

[Paul B]

Can you do a screenshot and point out where you mean?

Unless you just mean the margin bottom attribute?

 

[ArnyVee]

Yes sir, here is where I mean

 

[Paul B]

Yes, just set the margin bottom in the same place.

 

[ArnyVee]

Yes, just set the margin bottom in the same place.

Currently has "1em" in that space. Any idea on what I should adjust it to?

 

[Paul B]

1em is the default margin so it should appear as it does here.
Are you using a custom style?
It's possible it has been overridden in EXTRA.css or elsewhere.

If you can provide a link I can check the CSS.

Yes, using a custom style.

 

[Paul B]

It might be worth contacting the designer and asking them how they have overridden the Style Properties.

In the meantime you can add this to EXTRA.css:

.bbCodeBlock {
margin-bottom: 1em !important;
}

Thanks Brogan.

And yes, we've been in contact through another member here to see if we can get some direction.
