Title: Turn off all default CSS? Last modified: August 24, 2016 --- # Turn off all default CSS? * Resolved [ronaldfarber](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ronaldfarber/) * (@ronaldfarber) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/turn-off-all-default-css/) * Howdy! * First off, this is a great plugin. I’ve just downloaded it and started poking around and it looks to be exactly what I’ll need for the new site I’m working on. I’ll likely be purchasing the Social Login extension very soon as a way of saying thanks and supporting awesome developers like yourself. * However, I’m interested to know if there’s any way you guys could implement a“ turn off all default CSS styling” option for the plugin. * Like many others these days, I use SASS/LESS to write my theme’s styles, which then are built as CSS when I deploy my site. * It would be great if I could turn off all styling that is applied to the plugin elements by default, and then have the styles be included as part of my “build” process. * In this way, one could simply copy the plugin’s default CSS files into their project folder as a starting point, modifying as they see fit, and then complied into their theme’s style.css file, reducing HTTP requests and allowing easy customization. * Even better, if your developers are using SASS or LESS to generate the styles for the plugin, perhaps these preprocessor files could be provided somewhere to reduce the number of files that need to be edited to make the plugin truly customizable? * I do appreciate the ability to insert custom CSS on the plugin’s backend, but I’d rather just have it included in my theme’s styles.css file to begin with. * Thoughts on this, or any plans to include such an option in the future? * Thank you! * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/ultimate-member/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ultimate-member/) Viewing 5 replies - 1 through 5 (of 5 total) * Plugin Author [Ultimate Member](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ultimatemember/) * (@ultimatemember) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/turn-off-all-default-css/#post-6084470) * Hi! * Thanks for the nice feedback, and for trying Ultimate Member. We have received a similar request about option to turn off all css added by the plugin, and we’ll indeed be looking to add that option – ability to turn off css should be a good idea for the plugin, btw the minified version of css load only one css file to reduce requests. But this option will come as handy * Thanks for the suggestion, we’re looking to implement that option in the next couple of updates * Thread Starter [ronaldfarber](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ronaldfarber/) * (@ronaldfarber) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/turn-off-all-default-css/#post-6084597) * Thanks for the reply and I’m glad it’s being considered seriously! * Out of curiosity, is there a timeline in place as to when this might be implemented? If it’s not going to be for awhile, I might take a stab at overriding certain styles that clash with my site’s design, but otherwise I can probably hold off. * Thanks again! * Plugin Author [Ultimate Member](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ultimatemember/) * (@ultimatemember) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/turn-off-all-default-css/#post-6084605) * Would you like to just turn off any css rule added to UM form/elements? That option will come soon (if you can wait a few days to a week) based on our updates schedule. * Thread Starter [ronaldfarber](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ronaldfarber/) * (@ronaldfarber) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/turn-off-all-default-css/#post-6084647) * Yes, precisely! Glad to hear the option will be coming soon—I can most definitely wait a few days to a week for the update. * If you don’t mind me asking, as I’m just wondering—with the above option in mind, would it be possible for you guys to include base SASS/LESS files for us developers to include in our theme stylesheets as a starting point for customization? While we could certainly use the included plugin CSS files as a starting point for customization, it would be far easier if the “preprocessed” files were available for customization. * Thanks again! You guys rock! * Plugin Author [Ultimate Member](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ultimatemember/) * (@ultimatemember) * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/turn-off-all-default-css/#post-6084651) * I’ll have to discus this with the team as I can’t decide about this change for sure if it will happen at all or not. I am sorry, we’ll certainly look at adding option to turn off default styling tho, * Thanks!
