Blockquote
A powerful quote can build trust, inspire action, or crystallize your message. But a default text block? It’s easily overlooked. Master Addons Blockquote Element transforms static quotes into central design pieces. Control every detail – from the iconic quotation marks to the author’s credit. Style the text, the container, the symbols, and the spacing to create testimonials, mission statements, or pull-quotes that don’t just sit on the page; they own it. Move beyond plain text and design the authority your content deserves.
Structured Content
It starts with the words. Input the perfect quote and attribute it clearly to its source, building instant credibility. This turns a passive element into an active marketing tool, perfect for testimonials, client praise, or inspirational campaign messages.
- Dedicated Fields: Separate, easy-to-manage controls for the Quote Content and the Quote Author.
- Author Visibility: Prominently display the source to build trust and attribution.
- Flexible Content: Use it for customer testimonials, executive insights, literary excerpts, or persuasive pull-quotes.
Signature Symbol & Typography Styling
The quotation mark is more than punctuation – it’s a visual anchor. Take full creative control over this classic symbol. Choose to show or hide it, then precisely style its color, size, and position to match your brand’s personality. Pair this with typography controls for the main quote text, allowing you to set the perfect font, color, weight, and spacing to evoke the right tone, from bold and modern to classic and refined.
- Quote Symbol Control: Toggle the decorative quotation marks On or Off with one click.
- Symbol Customization: Independently set the symbol’s color and typography (size, font family).
- Placement: Use Margin controls (Top, Right, Bottom, Left) to position the symbol perfectly relative to your text.
- Primary Text Design: Use comprehensive Typography and Text Color controls to style the main quote body for maximum visual impact.
Complete Container Design & Layout
Ensure your quote feels integrated, not just pasted on. Design the container that holds everything. Set a Background with colors, gradients, or images, and define its Padding to create comfortable internal breathing space. Control the Border type and radius to create anything from a subtle card to a bold, framed panel. Finally, use the Text Alignment tool (Left, Center, Right) to position the entire quote block perfectly within your layout, ensuring perfect harmony with your page’s design.
- Professional Backgrounds: Apply solid colors, gradients, or images to the entire blockquote container.
- Container Spacing: Adjust Padding on all sides for perfect internal layout.
- Border Styling: Choose Border Type (like solid, double, dashed) and control thickness, color, and Border Radius for rounded corners.
- Overall Alignment: Use the Text Alignment selector to easily left-align, center, or right-align the entire quote block within its column or section.
Frequently Asked Questions For Blockquote
Can I use this for customer testimonials on my website?
Absolutely. This is a perfect use case. Enter the customer’s praise in the “Quote Content” field, add their name (and optionally title/company) in the “Quote Author” field. You can then style the container with a subtle background and border to make it stand out as a trusted endorsement.
Can I completely remove the quotation mark symbols?
Yes, you have full control. In the Quote Symbol settings, simply toggle the “Show quote symbol” option to OFF. This gives you a clean, modern look where the design relies solely on your typography and container styling.
Is the element responsive on mobile and tablet?
Yes. The Blockquote element is fully responsive. The container, text, symbols will automatically adjust to fit smaller screens. You can also use Elementor’s responsive editing mode to fine-tune settings like font sizes or padding specifically for tablet and mobile views.
What’s the best way to make a blockquote the focal point of a section?
Use a combination of features: 1) Choose a large, bold Typography for the quote text. 2) Apply a distinct Background or Border to the container. 3) Increase the Padding generously to create white space. 4) Use the Alignment tool to center it. 5) Consider using a large, stylized Quote Symbol in a contrasting color to draw the eye immediately.
