Thanks for the comment — I’m really glad you can use this tip!

There’s a couple of things you might try to increase the space around a pullquote: increasing the padding and adding a margin property. First, change the padding value in the common code code for both left and right pullquotes. If the results are not what you want, for example, there’s padding around parts of the pullquote you don’t want, add a padding property to the individual pullquote selectors. Like this:

/* pullquotes with double bar above and below */
.custom blockquote.left, .custom blockquote.right {
padding: 5px 5px 5px 5px; <======
padding: 5px; <=================OR
margin: some value; <===========OR
}
OR
.custom blockquote.left { float: left; padding-left: 5px; }
.custom blockquote.right { float: right; padding-right: 5px; }
OR
.custom blockquote.left { float: left; margin-left: 5px; }
.custom blockquote.right { float: right; margin-right: 5px; }

Unfortunately, HTML has its own way of doing things, so, although I’m hopeful that one of these methods will work, you may just be stuck.

This was a big help! Thanks for putting it together.

One thing though, is there an easy way to increase the space between the text that wraps around and the actual pullquote?

My body text always seem to bump too close to the pullquote.

Thanks!

Thanks again for all your guidance
