 * Hi Team,
 * Forminator is awesome. It has everything that the forms plugin should have. But
   I am facing some issue with the columns. I have created the form which has two
   columns. When I use this form in the column which has more width then, it comes
   up as two columns but when I do the same where the column width is less then,
   all the fields come under a single column. One after the other. The column where
   I am trying to fix this is around 300px.
 * Thanks in advance.

 * Hi [@rafiq250](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rafiq250/)
 * I hope you’re well today and thank you for your your kind words and your question!
 * This is happening because Forminator attempts to remain responsive in order to
   provide relatively good “readability” and access to field so if the parent/wrapper
   column is to narrow it will act like regular responsive layout on a smaller device
   screen and “adjust” itself.
 * The same would happen if you’d be using full-width one-column layout with two-
   column form and then viewed in on a mobile device with a screen capable of showing
   300 pixels only in width.
 * The “threshold width” for keeping two-column layout by the form would be 783 
   pixels and everything below that will cause layout to switch to one-column. You
   can try adding CSS like this to the site and it should override that behavior:
 *     ```
       @media only screen and (max-width:782px) {
       .forminator-col {
       	float:left;
         display:block;
       	width:45%;
       	margin-left:5px;
       }
       }
       ```

 * Hi [@wpmudev-support9](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpmudev-support9/),
 * I have tried this, but it wasn’t as expected but I tried the below one with individual
   fields then I was able to get the result. Using the below CSS again in the full
   width there was a problem as the fields were not equivalent to the default fields.
   I also created with 3 columns on pop up it again came up as a single row and 
   single column.
 *     ```
       .right-forminator-col {
       	float:left;
         display:block;
       	width:45%;
       	margin-left:5px;
       }
       .left-forminator-col {
       	float:left;
         display:block;
       	width:45%;
       	margin-left:5px;
       }
       ```
   
 * The plugin is great but some CSS issues facing from my end. This may not be the
   same for all. Good Job.

 * > I also created with 3 columns on pop up it again came up as a single row and
   > single column.
 * Just to be sure you meant you notice the issue when the form is added inside 
   a popup? or in any specific screen size like Mobile you are testing?
 * As mentioned in our initial response due to responsiveness if the screen size
   is small for eg Mobile, the fields would be stacked in a column.
 * If that isn’t the case and if you think there are anomalies, if possible, please
   do a link to the page you see the issue so that we could have a better idea regarding
   if there is any scope of improvement that needs within the plugin side or not.
 * Looking forward to your response. Have a great day ahead.

 * Hi, I have a similar issue (you can see it [here](https://www.dappledlights.com/wedding/#booknow)).
   There are three forminator forms—all with the same settings (the lower 2 are 
   copies of the first)—placed as shortcodes within the accordion. You will see 
   the first has the desired multiple columns whereas the lower ones have only one.
   The section is set to full width, boxed, the column containing the accordion 
   set to width 100% (the forms all resize to one column on mobile as they should).
   Not a big deal, but wondering why this happens.

 * I am having the same issue, although it has to do with the popup plugin I am 
   using. I have the form set up for two columns, but is placed as a shortcode in
   the popup maker plugin. Is there a way to get the two columns to work within 
   that popup?

 * Hello [@sbeat](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sbeat/),
 * Though it is a similar issue, the reason of occurrence could be different than
   that of this thread. To understand it better and to help you more with the issue,
   Could you please [create a new ticket](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/forminator/#new-topic-0)
   and we can take a closer look at your form?
 * The reason I’m requesting you to create a new thread is that this thread eas 
   created by someone else and making unnecessary replies from our end (my end) 
   to resolve other issues could disturb them. I appreciate your understanding here.
 * Thank you,
