For the name and email labels, your theme is hiding them with this: * ``` html.placeholder label[for] { display: none; } ``` * The text boxes for entering name and email are being given a white background color back your theme, with this: * ``` #main input[type=text], #main input[type=email], #main input[type=password], #main input[type=email], #main input[type=search], #main input[type=date], #main input[type=range], #main input[type=number], #main textarea, #main select { background-color: #ffffff; } ``` * You’ll need to make adjustments to make things visible. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Editor] left scrollbar appears in firefox, also dotted red line around selected images](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/left-scrollbar-appears-in-firefox-also-dotted-red-line-around-selected-images/) * [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/left-scrollbar-appears-in-firefox-also-dotted-red-line-around-selected-images/#post-5350105) * Hi Joy, * I see the scrollbar in Firefox. We’ll take a look at fixing that in the next update. * All of your images are opening in a new window in all browsers, not just Firefox. That’s because they have a target=”_blank” on the links wrapping them. If you’re in the Text editor view when editing those posts, you can remove that part of the link and the images will open in the same window. * The red dotted line (it’s actually orange) is there because of customizations you made to the styles. Specifically line 434 in style.css where you change the link color: `a:hover, a:focus, a:active` * The line shows up because the images are wrapped in links and they’re gaining focus when you click them. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Editor] Different fonts in sidebar toggles](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/different-fonts-in-sidebar-toggles/) * [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/different-fonts-in-sidebar-toggles/#post-5347092) * The CSS plugin you’re using should be fine with updates. If you make the footer. php customizations you’ll probably want to do those in a child theme. * To make another widget area instead of the featured posts would require a few customizations. You’d need to register a new [sidebar location](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_sidebar), probably in your child theme’s functions.php file, and make customizations to the header.php file so that it displays it instead of the featured posts. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Editor] Different fonts in sidebar toggles](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/different-fonts-in-sidebar-toggles/) * [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/different-fonts-in-sidebar-toggles/#post-5347077) * Hi, * For making theme customizations, it’s best to use a [child theme](https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes) so you don’t lose your changes when installing Editor updates in the future. * – The font color thing depends on if you’re using the light or dark sidebar. Which scheme are you using? You’ll need some custom CSS styles to match the color scheme you’re using. Those would go in your child theme’s style.css file. What exactly do you want to change? Widget and Post Title colors? * – You can customize the footer text by copying footer.php file from Editor into your child theme and making the edits there. * – We’ll likely not add any additional menus to the theme. I don’t see where they’d fit in with the design. You could add another menu using the Custom Menu widget that comes with WordPress, but that would show under the widget toggle and not on the main screen. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Mailbag] Adjusting the text "Enter your email:"](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adjusting-the-text-enter-your-email/) * Plugin Contributor [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adjusting-the-text-enter-your-email/#post-5344570) * My reply was posted twice…… * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Mailbag] Adjusting the text "Enter your email:"](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adjusting-the-text-enter-your-email/) * Plugin Contributor [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adjusting-the-text-enter-your-email/#post-5344568) * There’s no setting for that now. We’ve kept the plugin simple instead of packing it with options. We could add an option, or maybe a filter, that makes it easy to change. * You could edit the plugin files, but you’d lose the changes when updating it. You could change it with JavaScript. Neither of those are ideal though. * We’ll discuss the possibility of addressing this for the next update. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Mailbag] Adjusting the colour](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adjusting-the-colour/) * Plugin Contributor [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adjusting-the-colour/#post-5344565) * If you disable the Mailbag Form Styles setting, your theme will control the look of the form elements. You can also do custom CSS using the selectors the plugin uses: * ``` .mailbag-wrap input[type="text"], .mailbag-wrap input[type="email"], .mailbag-wrap input[type="password"] ``` * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Mailbag] Multiple Lists with Mailchimp](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-lists-with-mailchimp/) * Plugin Contributor [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-lists-with-mailchimp/#post-5344499) * Hey Romeo, * The plugin doesn’t support that currently, but I think it’s a good idea and something we’ll consider for a future update. * Thanks for your feedback. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Mailbag] Css is not working for woocommerce pages](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-is-not-working-for-woocommerce-pages/) * Plugin Contributor [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-is-not-working-for-woocommerce-pages/#post-5330597) * Hi Rishabh, * As you noted, WooCommerce styles buttons on pages where it outputs something. To replicate that look you’ll need to copy all their styles to your non-WooCommerce button styles. This isn’t specific to Mailbag, and it would likely affect other plugins such as contact forms. * You can try background-color: transparent to get rid of the button background color, but beyond that you’ll need to dig into what WooCommerce is doing and copy it if that’s the look you want. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Mailbag] How to change heading](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-change-heading/) * Plugin Contributor [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-change-heading/#post-4893966) * It looks like WooCommerce is styling buttons and form fields on pages where it operates. You’ll need to copy those styles if you want that same look on non- WooCommerce pages. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Editor] Date and byline](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/date-and-byline/) * [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/date-and-byline/#post-5302123) * Hi, * To have the photos show at the top of the post like they are in [our demo](http://themes.array.is/editor/), assign the image as a [Featured Image](http://cl.ly/image/2R340y3p3f1J). * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Editor] Extra blank space on mobile devices](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/extra-blank-space-on-mobile-devices/) * [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/extra-blank-space-on-mobile-devices/#post-5254795) * ecommonist, * Do you see this on our demo page [here](http://themes.array.is/editor/)? I’m not seeing it.

It’s weird that you’re not seeing one. * Did you disable all your plugins at the same time and try it with zero plugins activated? If so, sounds like you have some other kind of conflict or issue caused by a plugin saving something to the database. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Editor] HR not visible](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hr-not-visible/) * [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hr-not-visible/#post-5276828) * That could be it. You can try disabling the plugin, or any other plugins, to see. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Editor] HR not visible](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hr-not-visible/) * [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hr-not-visible/#post-5276816) * Hi Avantart, * By default, Editor shows the horizontal rule in both the editing screen and on the front end of the site. If you’re not seeing it as it is in Mike’s screenshot, chances are it’s due to the editor customizations you’ve made.
