# Search button style

 * I am trying to change the search button in the plugin front end to show the word“
   search” (matches my themes search) as opposed to the magnifying glass icon.
 * I have achieved it by overriding the css class in my child theme as follows:
 *     ```
       .form-group .fa-search:after {
           content: "Search";
           font-family: 'Roboto Condensed';
           font-weight: 700;
           font-size: 13px;
       }
       ```
   
 * However the button is not wide enough to display the word and I cannot find the
   class to over ride to change it’s width.
 * Can you please advise which class this is? Thanks in advance.
