    Thank you for the awesome plugin. It works great, but in combination with my theme it looks ugly. I would like to be able to customize it a little and come up with my own design using CSS. I imagine that it’s a pretty basic feature. Unfortunately it doesn’t work. The register form simply ignores all my rules no matter what I do. Is there anything I’m missing? Thank you.

    Oh sure! I thought I provided the link tho. Hers is the link: http://deutschklasse.ru/test-page/

    Hope you can help me.

    Thanks. To me it looks like your form is blending in with your theme. The only CSS included in this plugin is related to error messages on the registration form… for example, if someone doesn’t supply all the correct information it will show an error and we style those errors. We don’t style any form elements at all. What exactly are you trying to change that’s not taking effect?

    You are correct it kind of does but I still want to make some changes.
    I would like to aplly “display: none” to the first and the last name fields. The are not required and I don’t need them. Second, I want to decrease the gap between the fields. Third : I might wanna make all fields longer. maybe even 100%. And the last thing I wanna style the button so that it looks exactly like all other buttons on my website.

    These seem to be pretty simple things. I have done them many times with other plugins. But restrict Conten just won’t react to changes. What exactly is the reason of me not being able to style this form? I can handle CSS myself. I just want to understand why this awesome plugin does not respond to any of my changes. Can I fix it somehow?

    It’s hard to say without seeing the CSS you’re trying. My guess is that your theme is overriding the styles you’re trying to apply. Try adding !important to your styles to see if that takes effect.

    Yeah I’ve tried that before. Haven’t worked. So you’re trying to say it’s not about the plugin. And that ideally i SHOULD be able to style it?

    Show me exactly what CSS you’re trying. You can paste it on gist.github.com and paste the link here.
