# Padding around button

 * Sorry, I’ve seen this asked several times (not just with this plugin) but without
   any resolution. No matter whether I use one of the stock button images or I use
   one of my own, I end up with a grey border around the image. Does it have to 
   do with my wordpress template? I’ve tried a few CSS custom edits with border-
   width and padding, but to no avail (sorry I’m not very CSS literate, just very
   capable of making things worse!<smile>). Any ideas would be greatly appreciated,
   and thanks for the plugin!!

 * If a border is showing up around the button then that is coming from your theme’s
   CSS. You can temporarily switch the theme to a default WordPress theme to see
   the difference.

 * I am having the same issue on our page: [http://www.wifoodpantry.org/donate-funds/](http://www.wifoodpantry.org/donate-funds/).
   
   Isn’t there some way to suppress this? You have a check box to override the them
   and center the button. Is it very difficult to override the them to not have 
   a huge box around?

 * Looks like you have some hidden HTML code around the shortcode which is causing
   this issue.
 * Edit that page and then go to the “Text” view so you can see everything on that
   page. Remove any hidden HTML code from around the shortcode.
