If you would like to give your form a different style, you will need to do that with CSS added to your theme's stylesheet. There are no built in formats or themes which can be selected, however, you have complete control over it all. You will need to know some CSS to style the forms. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/styling-my-forms-with-dreamweaver#post-143347 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 10:26:32 +0000 Thannon67 143347@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>So if I am reading this right, there is no easy solution for a non developer or designer to easily select a format to design a form? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/styling-my-forms-with-dreamweaver#post-141736 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 17:42:24 +0000 David Peralty 141736@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>We have all of our information about styling Gravity Forms right here:<br /> <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Design_and_Layout" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Design_and_Layout</a></p> <p>It can be a bit overwhelming though if you don't have at least a beginner -&gt; intermediate level understanding of CSS classes and about the same level of knowledge regarding WordPress theme language. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/styling-my-forms-with-dreamweaver#post-141733 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 17:36:17 +0000 sheki 141733@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>And, if I don't use dreamweaver, how do I get access to the CSS code in gravity forms to manipulate it?

Though, if I were to try, I would create a form in Dreamweaver, style it, and turn off Gravity Forms' CSS output and try using the style I created. You might have to change the classes to match the output of Gravity Forms, but otherwise it should work... </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/styling-my-forms-with-dreamweaver#post-141586 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 13:13:38 +0000 sheki 141586@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi, I'm a newbie to gravity forms. I'm working on a wordpress site locally and trying to figure out how to style my form. The default that I have is ugly and the spacing is so large that the form is a foot long in my sidebar. I desperately need to restyle this form and I'd like to be able to do that visually (wysiwyg) i.e. Dreamweaver. Can I do this? Where do I get the code? </p> <p>Thanks so much,<br /> sheki </p>
