• Is there a simple way of inserting a line break into the display of results so that entries would display this way;
    Field(1)
    Field(2)
    Field(4)
    Rather than;
    Field(1)Field(2)Field(3)
    I have adapted the plugin for a music venues listing site and need to display 10 fields for each entry including 2 text area fields. At present I am only displaying the first few fields as the rest won’t fit on the page. Vertical listing would solve this.
    Any assistance would be very much appreciated.

    davemurphyno1,

    You can achieve this in your theme CSS by applying “display:block” to the label elements.

    Thanks for your reply.
    The file style.css now has the following;
    #kippis_options-content label {display:block;font-weight:bold;color:#444;font-size:1.1em;margin-bottom:5px;text-shadow:1px 0 0 #fff;}
    but display is still as before.Am I doing something wrong?

    Well, at this point, I can’t help you without being able to see it. The problem is there are other CSS rules that are affecting the display and those will need to be overridden. There’s no way for me to tell from your selector whether it will work or not.

    Post a link, or if you don’t want to do that, take a look at the overall CSS on the page (I suggest using Firebug in Firefox) and make sure your selector is targeting the correct element and has enough specificity to override other rules that are applied to that same element.

    I have downloaded firebug and I am figuring out how to use it,
    Here is a link to a page where I have tried to put in some sample entries to get the layout sorted.

    I have looked at the entire CSS for the theme and can’t see any obvious rules which would stop it displaying as I need.
    If necessary I could use a different responsive theme as the features in Participants Database are more important to me than the theme.

    Ah, OK, I understand, I took a look. That won’t be simple in the least! It requires a custom template, but you’ll have to completely rearrange the way it lays out the data…note really practical unless you’re a programmer.
    Much simpler I think would be to use a theme template that lets you use the full width of the page…then get a smaller font, and then probably figure out which of those 10 columns you can do without. It’s possible to link each record to a “single record” page where all the details can be laid out…this may be a way to present less information in your table.
