The blockquote plugin takes and author, source, title and quote, and outputs semantic HTML.
|
|
|
|
#### Syntax
|
|
|
|
{{ "{% blockquote [author[, source]] [link] [source_link_title]" }} %}
|
|
Quote string
|
|
{{ "{% endblockquote" }} %}
|
|
|
|
You'll notice there are two entries for `source`; one after `author`, and one after `link`. If you are citing from a printed work or a speech or something you cannot link to,
|
|
use the first method `Author's Name, Cited Work`. If you're going to link to the work, omit the first source method, and add a source title after the link `Author's Name http://source.com Article title`.
|
|
|
|
#### Examples
|
|
Blockquote arguments are optional, you can output a plain blockquote like this.
|
|
|
|
{{ "{% blockquote" }} %}
|
|
Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, where the heck is the ceiling.
|
|
{{ "{% endblockquote" }} %}
|
|
|
|

For those who appreciate the little things, you'll notice in the Twitter example above, the url is truncated and drops the protocol segment.
|
|
Sometimes (like with Twitter) ading a link title doesn't really make sense, but showing the full url is noisy and distracting.
|
|
For this reason, the blockquote plugin automatically strips out the protocol, and if the url is longer than 32 characters it truncates the url on a forward slash for beauty's sake.
