The form is simply inheriting a rule from your theme's (Thesis) layout.css file. If you look at the layout.css file on line 247 you'll see this rule.</p> <pre><code>[css] .format_text input, #commentform input, #commentform textarea { width: 45%; padding: 0.25em; border-width: 0.083em 0.083em 0.083em 0.083em; }</code></pre> <p>That's setting ANY input inside the "format_text" classed div to 45% width. Buttons are inputs, so it's inheriting that rule. The form in the footer doesn't inherit that rule so it doesn't look the same.</p> <p>You can override that button style by adding this to your custom CSS rules.</p> <pre><code>[css] .format_text .gform_wrapper input[type=submit] {width:auto!important}</code></pre> <p>If you run into any other styling oddities, just search the forums for "Thesis" and you'll find plenty of other threads dealing with the same issues. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/anyone-use-gravity-forms-to-drive-subscriptions-from-sidebarwidget#post-27811 Wed, 15 Jun 2011 00:23:09 +0000 jkinley 27811@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I am having CSS related issues as well. In the main content area, things work fine, but sidebars and footers not so much. I am manually enqueuing the scripts and CSS, but there are still issues. For example, look at the submit button. Why are they not the same in the main content area vs the footer?</p> <p><a href="http://barefeats.org/wp302/contact-us/" rel="nofollow">http://barefeats.org/wp302/contact-us/</a></p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>JK </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/anyone-use-gravity-forms-to-drive-subscriptions-from-sidebarwidget#post-6131 Sun, 06 Jun 2010 09:21:32 +0000 Chris Hajer 6131@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>What do you mean "ain't working"?
