DROPCAPS Enquiry, Help!!!

Hi, you can use shortcode for dropcap in your post. Simply insert:

[dropcap]H[/dropcap]ello, welcome to my world...

where should i insert that? in php or css? Thanks

Ok, got it, I inserted it inside the post itself at the beginning and it worked. However Is there a way to code this inside php or css so I don’t have to do this for every post? Thanks

One option might be to “fake it” with some custom CSS. Get a custom CSS plugin and use this code:

.entry-inner:first-letter {
  color: #444;
  display: block;
  float: left;
  font-size: 94px;
  line-height: 0.9em;
  font-weight: 600;
  margin: 0 10px 0 0;
}

This may fail in cases with foreign languages, though.

I actually put that in the custom sheet that comes with wordpress jetpack but it didn’t work properly. I tried a few other things but none worked properly, so i guess i just have to manually insert it into my posts. If anyone has solution to this, would be appreciated

Can you post a link to your site?

hi stephen, im just going to stick with the manual insertion since i only need the dropcaps for a few certain posts. thanks though, and thanks to the guy who answered me first, will mark this as solved.

SOLVED

at me too this feature does not work what to do?

[dropcap]H[/dropcap]ello,

This works fine on the individual post, but when viewing the post preview in the article list, it makes the first letter completely disappear.
