Why are opening quotes not being styled?
This plugin offers an option to wrap initial quotes in a span of class quo or dquo. You can then style these classes in your CSS Stylesheet. This is useful if you want to – for example – negatively indent quotes so the quote hangs in the left margin and the text is aligned with the text below. Please note, this applies only to initial quotes – quotemarks that appear as the first character of a block of text (like a paragraph or blockquote). This does not apply to all opening quotes.
