 * I’m having an issue with the Submit button on one of my websites. My theme is
   a dark theme (i.e. black background with white text). The form itself looks fine.
   The labels for the fields are white as they should be. However, the Submit button
   is solid white. I know that my theme is working correctly as there’s a Search
   button in the right sidebar. That button looks as it should. Only the Submit 
   button on the form is unreadable as the button and the button text appear to 
   be white.

 * The actual look of CF7 forms on your website will depend largely on the current
   WordPress theme used and the CSS styling that theme applies to standard HTML 
   form elements. To change the style of your CF7 forms you would need to edit the
   CSS style sheets used by your WordPress theme.
 * See [Styling Contact Form](http://kb.cf7skins.com/styling-contact-form-7-forms/)
   for a general explanation of styling CF7 forms using CSS.
 * [Using a Custom CSS plugin to modify a CF7 Skins Style](http://kb.cf7skins.com/use-custom-css-plugin/)–
   provides step by step instructions on how to change Submit button styling.​​
 * If you find you need more detailed advice, after reading and working through 
   the above link, please include a link to your [Contact Form 7 form](https://developers.google.com/chrome-developer-tools/),
   so others here can examine your form in detail using [Firebug](https://getfirebug.com/)
   or Chrome Dev Tools to understand the CSS used for your CF7 form elements and
   provide you with a possible solution.
