Hi Guys,

I have just updated to the latest version of easyblog and added a post: http://www.ultimatefestivalguide.com/festival-news/harbourlife-festival-announces-initial-acts-for-2014-australia

Prior to the update using the <blockquote> styling was working fine and now as you will see it produces 2 sets of opening quotation marks.

This is the code I have been using <blockquote><p> Text Here etc etc </p></blockquote>

I also noticed that the 2nd quotation mark has also been added to previous posts as well: http://www.ultimatefestivalguide.com/festival-news/faith-no-more-soundgarden-slipknot-slash-to-headline-soundwave-festival-australia

Any help appreciated

Kind regards

Andy
Hello Andy,

I am sorry but I cannot replicate this issue with our local. Here my screenshot: http://screencast.com/t/yWPqyb40okkK . Can you provide us with backend access and ftp access so that we can investigate, debug and apply fixes in your site. You can put these information in the Site Details below.

Please be advise.
Thanks.

Hi,

I see from your screenshot that you only have the black open quotation mark showing. Previously I have grey open & closing quotation marks as you can see from the link I sent over!


I am unable to give you ftp access but I know from past support that you guys can apply some script that allows you to access the files you need

Kind regards

Andy

Hello Andy,

Can you try adding the following block of css codes in your template's css file? It looks like your Joomla template is already adding the blockquote background.



#ezblog-body .blog-text blockquote:before {

  	content: "" !important;

}

Many thanks for your help
