Custom CSS

    I’d like to set my custom css to the forms. Some css works and some don’t if the same values are already defined by the plugin. Which file can I edit to do this?

    Also, I am having 2 separate kinds of subscribe areas (sidebar, and each post). If I change the css file that came with the plugin, would that affect both subscribe fields?

    What would be the cleanest way to do this?

    Thanks,

    Hi Nayeonkim,

    I would recommend you download the latest release which should be coming out to the WordPress.org repository on Monday.

    You can download that from the following url:

    In terms of customizing the CSS, I think you’ll find the new version to be easier to work with. A lot of styles in the old plugin had !important tags, which is harder to override.

    The new version prevents the use of these to let you customize however you see fit.

    I would recommend doing so in your themes style.css file (ideally you should have a child theme setup to prevent any loss of styles on a theme update), or you can use a custom css plugin which seems to work well. I generally recommend: https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css/

    If you inspect the widget you’ll find that it has additional classes so you can target widgets without effecting any other forms on the site, or you can target forms on a global level and style theme all together.

    Thanks,
    Evan
