 * Hello,
 * Is there a way to change the “message” input boxes rows? For example it has 7,
   but I would only like 3.
 * Doesn’t seem to be a way to do this without editing the HTML? Cant figure out
   a way to do it with CSS.
 * Thanks for your help!
 * -Charles

 * Nevermind solved it… width / height properties control rows / cols in CSS.

 * Happy to hear it’s sorted out.
 * And in case anyone else runs into this topic, the height of the textarea can 
   be modified with CSS like this:
 *     ```
       #simple-contact-form .scf-row textarea {
       	height: 200px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Lower or increase the number based on your needs.
 * That code goes in WP admin > Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS
