 * Hi, I’m having a big issue with contact form 7. My application is so close to
   working, but where i set checkboxes in the amenities section, they are stacking
   vertically and spaced out. looks awful! i didn’t do anything fancy with the code,
   just dropped the check box code that was created for me. no matter what i kind
   of tags i put before and after the code, nothing changes. the link for you to
   check out is

 * This is an issue of your theme’s CSS stylesheet. You have this in the CSS:
 *     ```
       .register-form .wpcf7 input, .register-form .wpcf7 textarea {
           margin-right: 20px;
           width: 275px;
       }
       ```
   
 * The “width: 275px” is also applied to checkboxes so they are shown too wide. 
   Correct the style rule or switch to another theme.

 * Thank you for the quick reply! i recently spent $100 for the theme and all the
   extra plugins it came with. so I’m definitely not switching themes. lol can you
   point me in the right direction towards correcting the “style rule”? this is 
   literally the only issue I’m having with this theme. thank you!

 * You could try asking the Theme Provider that has your $100. The CSS they have
   used shows really bad practice IMHO.
