blockquote is italicized in koenig editor but not in actual blog post #10302

Closed runia1 closed 5 years ago

runia1 commented 5 years ago

Issue Summary

When using the koenig editor to add a blockquote the font is italicized, but the actual blog post's blockquote is not.

To Reproduce

  1. Add a blockquote to a post you are writing.
  2. Publish the post.
  3. See that the blockquote looks the same except that it is not italicized.

Any other info e.g. Why do you consider this to be a bug? What did you expect to happen instead?

I assume that the font styling in the editor is supposed to directly match the font styling for the actual blog post. If that is not a correct assumption then maybe this isn't a bug.. but then again, if you can't rely on the two matching then why even offer options for font styling in the editor... so I assume my assumption that this is a bug is correct. Not sure if this is useful but I am using the default Casper theme. Also if I use the editor and explicitly say the text should be both a blockquote and italicized then that is one way to make them match but that requires the author to know there is a bug.

Hey @runia1 :wave: The font styling of the blog is only dependent on the theme blog is set up to use. It completely independent of the editor on the admin site.

It would be nice to have a closer resemblance of editor content to what is displayed in the blog. This topic would need to be discussed first and better suits as an idea post on our forum - https://forum.ghost.org/c/Ideas :smiley:

If you just want to modify how your blockquotes are displayed, you could try searching for other themes that style them that way or modify the Casper theme locally in this place - https://github.com/TryGhost/Casper/blob/79ebbd50a32e1dcabc4d09077d7f4b34e91d7e71/assets/css/screen.css#L900-L904

It's really not a big deal, I just wanted to post the issue incase the italicizing was not the intended look for the editor. In this case it sounds like the Casper theme we're using just doesn't have parity with the editor which is fine as long as it's the theme that's non-conforming and not an editor bug.
