Issues with line breaks in blockquotes

Hi,

nvm I found my solution. Turns out the issue comes from the custom blockquote CSS I'm using, which is the following:

blockquote:before {

color: #ccc;

content: open-quote;

font-size: 4em;

line-height: 0.1em;

margin-right: 0.25em;

vertical-align: -0.4em;

}



blockquote:after {

color: #ccc;

content: close-quote;

font-size: 4em;

line-height: 0.1em;

margin-left: 0.25em;

vertical-align: -1em;

}



blockquote p {

display: inline;

}

The display:inline at the end seems to completely mess up the breaks. I couldn't find a solution so for now I just got rid of it, the closing quote ends up at the bottom of the block but that still looks better than no line breaks.

To move the closing quote to the top right corner (which I assume is what you want), try this:
blockquote:after {
/* carry over all current properties */
position: absolute;
top: 0.5em;
right: 0.25em;
}
blockquote {
position: relative; /* This is what causes the positioning of the closing-quote to be relative to the blockquote, rather than to the page. */
}
