Frequently Asked Questions

What does the blockquote markup look like?

This is the quote.
Citation

Why doesn’t my blockquote look good when displayed?

This plugin doesn’t add any styling for blockquotes. Contact the author of your theme to make sure they support blockquote markup.

Blockquote Classes/Styles

Developers can optionally add style options to the pop-up. Any selected styles will apply a class directly to the <blockquote> element.

function prefix_blockquote_classes() {
    $options = array(
        'class-1' => __( 'Style One', 'better-blockquotes' ),
        'class-2' => __( 'Style Two', 'better-blockquotes' ),
    );
    return $options;
}
add_filter( 'betterblockquotes_classes', 'prefix_blockquote_classes' );

Exactly what I was wanting!

I too was about to add an enhancement request for Core to do just this, when I saw that it had already been requested and this plugin was the result. It's just as I imagined. I can only hope that, in time, this gets added to Core, especially as it's a similar premise to the inline link feature.
