 * Hi
 * I would like to adjust the depth of several fields on my contact form. I would
   like the height of each box to increase by about 8px. The fields that Im talking
   about are
 * Single line Text
    Email Dropdown
 * I think that what I appear to be trying to do is increase the padding from 6px
   to 10px.
 * I would also like to alter the font weight of the field labels so that they aren’t
   quite so heavy.
 * Can someone please help me withn this?
 * Thanks

 * Hi [@art27](https://wordpress.org/support/users/art27/),
 * To do what you’ve described, please try the following custom CSS:
 *     ```
       div.wpforms-container-full .wpforms-form input[type=text],
       div.wpforms-container-full .wpforms-form input[type=email],
       div.wpforms-container-full .wpforms-form select {
           padding: 10px !important;
       }
   
       div.wpforms-container-full .wpforms-form .wpforms-field-label {
           font-weight: 400 !important;
       }
       ```
   
 * And in case it helps, here’s a tutorial from WPBeginner on [how to add custom CSS like this to your site](http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-easily-add-custom-css-to-your-wordpress-site/).
 * Hope this helps!

 * Hi Ethan
 * Thanks for getting back to me. I tried your solution but it didnt seem to increase
   the height of the boxes. I did find a solution that does seem to work but I have
   no idea if it is the correct way of fixing the problem without causing another
   problem elsewhere. I used this code.
 *     ```
       div.wpforms-container-full .wpforms-form input[type=text], div.wpforms-container-full .wpforms-form input[type=email], div.wpforms-container-full .wpforms-form select {
         height:46px;  
       }
       ```
   
 * Is this solution ok or will it cause a problem elsewhere?
