• Hello, I made a list of quotes that use a custom breaker of %%. The quotes are a list that displays a few things each day varying in length. Is there a way to make it so the quote appears in a bullet point list where at every new line it creates a bullet until the breaker?

    For example my daily quote is:

    %%

    Test

    1

    2

    3

    %%

    I want a bullet before every number and the word “Test”

    What I would do is put a quote like this:

    <li>1. Day 1 First point</li><li>2.Day 1 Second point</li><li>3.Day 1 Third point</li><li>4.Day 1 Fourth point</li>%%<li>1. Day 2 First point</li><li>2.Day 2 Second point</li><li>3.Day 2 Third point</li><li>4.Day 2 Fourth point</li>%%<li>1. Day 3 First point</li><li>2.Day 3 Second point</li><li>3.Day 3 Third point</li><li>4.Day 3 Fourth point</li>

    In the code for the quote template:

    <ul><li>Test</li>{{quote}}</ul>

    Thanks for your hep Jeremy. I figured out how to make a bulleted list using a custom format using {{quote}}. My next issue is I have 2 different daily quotes that use 2 different formats but both format use {{quote}}. Once I add the second format they both do not work. What is the fix for this? Also, is there a way to get a image to change daily like the quotes?

    Thank you,

    Good deal.

    I am not sure what you did but each quote has its own unique area for a template/theme.

    Since your setup is not a standard one I would put the necessary theme/template for each quote section into its custom override.

    Then add back the default theme into the “Settings” area.

    As for changing image that is possible if you make it part of the quote or another quote area even if it doesn’t look like a quote. Review multipart quotes too.

    Thanks for the quick response,

    Under multipart it states I can only use {{quote}} in 1 custom format. I am trying to use it in 2 different formats. For example, the first format makes bullet points at the beginning of each quote and the second makes a numbered list before each quote. Is there a fix for this?

    You can use both but not in the same quote area. You of course may have multiple quote areas/sections on your page.

    You have to think through your layout. If you are going to have same number of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 on every day then you could probably do it all in a single multiquote section.

    However I do not know your total layout so you need to think it through as you know what you want and not me.

    I have 4 different sections of daily quote on a page on my website. The first 2 use the basic setting. The third quote uses a custom code/ template which starts every line in the quote for that day with a bullet. The fourth section uses a custom code/template that start every new line with a number to create a numbered list. I can only put 1 custom code in, once I put the other they both stop working. For example, If i put the custom code for section 3 I see the bullets, once I put it in for section 4 the bullets go away and the format doesn’t work for section 4 either. The same thing happens vise versa. The code uses {{quote}} which in the multipart guide says is not available. Should I be using something else in replacement to {{quote}} in my code?
