  2. Not 100% sure what you're talking about here. I'm guessing your theme is enqueuing the front-end theme styles in the admin when it shouldn't be and that's a theme issue and you should work with your theme provider to correct.

    Of course you can edit the admin css file but I wouldn't recommend it. Any changes you make to the core plugin files/CSS will be overwritten when you run your updates. There aren't any options for the admin display at this time.. the style is set and intended to be consistent with the existing WordPress user interface.

  4. Sure. You can post a link to the screenshot here if it's on a server somewhere, or you can send it to kevin@rocketgenius.com and I'll take a look at it.

  5. I took a look at your screenshot and that's not a Gravity Forms issue. Your theme is loading front-end styles in the WordPress admin and that's where the background image is coming from.

    You should contact your theme developer and ask them how to stop the styles from being applied to the admin because they're most likely going to cause you other problems.

    This is not an ideal solution, but you can try adding this rule to the end of your WordPress ( /wp-admin/css/colors-fresh.css ) admin stylesheet as a temporary fix. Note, this is NOT the Gravity Forms admin styles, but the WordPress core admin styles.

    [css]
    html body.wp-admin,
    html body.wp-admin div#wpwrap {
    	background-image:none !important
    }

    The problem here is that you'll lose the customization when you upgrade your WordPress installation. Your best bet is to have the theme developer fix the issue properly and you won't have to worry about it moving forward.
