- Edit an existing post or create a new one.
- Click Custom HTML under the Blocks tab in the editor.
- Switch to HTML mode in the editor.
- Wrap your paragraph with the <blockquote> tag before the text and the closing </blockquote> tag after the indented text.
- Select Preview to check how the indented paragraph appears.
- Confirm that the <blockquote> tag creates a visually indented block of text within your WordPress content.
