 * Hi
    You have listed on your support site information on how to change content
   of the error box but not the position.
 * I know the variables to change, but it is not working. Here is what I found and
   pasted in css:
 * .widget_wysija_cont .formError {
    opacity: 0.87; position: absolute; top: 2725.57px;
   left: 508.2px; margin-top: 0px; }
 * I changed the top and left variables pixels. Is there something I’m missing? 
   Right now the error message is over the button as I have made the input boxes
   inline – can you help? Thanks

 * Hi,
 * Can you make sure that you’re using !important?
 * Thanks!
