Form looks messed up

  1. Hello

    My form on the page http://www.newsmailer.dk/?page_id=18 looks messed up as you can see. Any idea what causes it to look like this and perhaps a possible solution to the problem.

    Thanks in advance.

  2. I looked at your form and it's the theme CSS that's causing the issue. There are very generic form styles applied to all input elements, etc.

    I copied your form page and style.css file and put it on my test area. I commented out the entire "form label" declaration that starts on line 1238 of the style.css and that fixed most of the problem.

    There was another issue with the widths/spacing on the checkboxes at the bottom of the form and I went to line 1258 and removed the "width:92%" value that the inputs were inheriting.

    You can see my result here. screenshot

  4. I am having the same problems, no idea about how I should fix this. What should I put in the custom.css?

  5. @BaldwinKoo, You'll need to post a link to your form so I can check it out. I can't really tell you much without seeing it.

  6. It is at http://www.baldwinkoo.com/contact

    It looks fine on firefox but on chrome there are no borders.

  7. It's a Thesis theme-related styling issue. It's most likely the border-width value on line 224 of the layout.css file.

    You might try adding this to your custom.css file.

    .format_text input, #commentform input, #commentform textarea {border-width: 1px;}

    Beyond that, I'm not sure. You would need to contact the Thesis support team for additional help, it's not a Gravity Forms specific issue.

  8. It worked perfectly, thank you!

    Loving gravity forms, very glad I purchased it.

  9. Great success. It was kind of a "best guess" but I'm glad it worked for you. Thanks for the update
