 * Hi Team,
 * Firstly, I love the theme, thank you for all your development and support!
 * My issue is with the ‘search’ button on the search widget. For some reason it
   has started looking odd.

 * Haven’t been editing the CSS so I’m not sure how this has happened.
 * Thanks!

 * In your [Child Theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes) or [CSS Editor Plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css/)
   try this code:
 *     ```
       button.tiny, .button.tiny {
           padding: 0.025rem 1.25rem 0.6875rem;
       }
       ```
   
 * **\*Note**
    If your theme has a custom CSS Editor in it, you can also paste the
   code in there.
 * Never edit core CSS or PHP files under **Appearance** > **Editor**. Your edits
   will be deleted when the theme is updated.

 * Thanks, that’s worked! Any idea why it would have changed?
 * Not using a child theme and I don’t think I made any edits to the CSS/PHP files…

 * Possibly, within the last two weeks I think. I keep all themes and plugins up
   to date.

 * Might just have been an over-site from the theme developer.
 * Best part is WordPress can be edited easily!

 * Hi there,
 * I did notice the same thing with the search button but didn’t get a chance to
   change it before the update was approved.
 * The change was on the foundation side as all buttons are styled via the main 
   foundation css file.
 * Sorry for the mix up. This will be taken care of in the next update. For now 
   I hope everyone follows the fix provided above add it’s the same one I was gong
   to offer.
 * If possible, please leave a review. Enjoy!!

 * Actually i think this works best:
 *     ```
       #searchsubmit button.tiny, .button.tiny {
       	padding-top: 0;
       }
       ```
   
 * This targets the search button specifically

 * HAHA sorry I take that back it should be
 *     ```
       /* Search button fix */
       .widget #searchsubmit {
       	padding-top: 0;
       }
       ```
   
 * The one I posted previously also targeted any other buttons like comment buttons.
   This is what I am going to add to the css for the new update 😉

 * In Wp-Forge 5.5.2.2 I used the following:
 *     ```
       /* Search button fix */
       .postfix.button {
         padding: 0;
         font-size: 0.875rem;
       }
       ```

 * Hi!
    Great theme! Here’s another way I found to do that which is pretty specific
   in case buttons are used elsewhere:
 *     ```
       .widget_search .button.tiny {
         padding: 0;
         font-size: 0.6875rem;
       }
       ```
   
 * Thanks, Dave
