[Plugin: MailChimp List Subscribe Form] CSS should be in a separate file

    Hi,

    Could you please put the CSS in a separate file, thus not in the html? Or maybe not include it at all, then we can add the CSS ourselves to the existing style.css file? This would be great as it will minimize code bloat (which is helpful in making a site search engine friendly), plus it makes it easier to control.

    Recently, I started using your plugin and wanted to make it style seamlessly with my client’s design. Unfortunately though, in order to do so, I had change the CSS in your plugin code, which of course was later overwritten when I updated the plugin with the latest version. So, instead of having to redo my CSS every time, it would be great if it were in a separate file like the majority of the other plugins, or again, not included at all. This would be most helpful, and consequently, I’d start using and advocating Mail Chimp again.

    Thank you.

    If we put it in a separate file, it is still going to get overwritten when the plugin is upgraded. If you need separate css, turn off our “custom styling” option and then add whatever you need to one of your existing css files.

    Thanks for your help, MC Jesse,

    Yeah, that’s what I did…turned off “‘custom styling,'” but the CSS still shows up in the html and thus controls the layout. Any ideas on how to remove that code? It’s really pushing a lot of my search engine friendly content down the page (in the source code) which can adversely affect my client’s rankings, that’s another reason I had to turn it off.

    Other than that, it’s a great plugin. Very useful. Thank you.
