EA Elementor CSS Specificity Issue After Gravity Forms v3 Update
-
Hi EA team,
after the recent Gravity Forms 3 updates we have a problem with the styling of our forms.
The CSS of the EA Addon for Elementor seems to be less specific than Gravity Forms own CSS so, it does not override the Gravity Forms styling corrrectly anymore.So any styling applied through elementor with your widgets style tab is currently not displayed correctly.
See here an example for the background-color:
The widgets/elementiors CSS striked because it‘s not in used
Gravity Forms CSS which seems to be more specific than the widgets CSS

I’d not like to have to go through every form on our site and apply custom CSS for each form because of this. We currently have ~70 active forms.
Do you have any suggestions, or is this a known issue maybe? I didn’t find anything in this forum.
