You were correct. * The final code looks like this * ``` .wpcf7 input[type="text"], .wpcf7 input[type="email"], .wpcf7 textarea { background-color: #FAFAFA; border: 2px solid #848484; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 1px 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.06) inset; color: #fff; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400; padding: 16px; width: 100%; } ``` * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Genesis Responsive Slider] How do I combine the silder and text?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-combine-the-silder-and-text/) * Thread Starter [monsterman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/monsterman/) * (@monsterman) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-combine-the-silder-and-text/#post-5571699) * > You’ll have to use a different slider. * How would a different slider work better? * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [How to find CSS for blank spaces in page?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-find-css-for-blank-spaces-in-page/) * Thread Starter [monsterman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/monsterman/) * (@monsterman) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-find-css-for-blank-spaces-in-page/#post-5561319) * Many thanks for the detailed advice. I’ve downloaded Chrome and take your point that it provides more information about the CSS content than Firebug or the native Firefox Inspector. * One question: * Take this screenshot: [http://www.imagesup.net/?di=1514184062317](http://www.imagesup.net/?di=1514184062317) * I want to change the margin-bottom: from 40px to 10px. I’m not clear how I enter the code in my Simple Custom CSS plugin to override the standard margin. * I’m sure it’s part of the .footer-widgets-1 area but then there’s a .widget as well (see image). * I tried entering this for example but it didn’t change anything: * ``` .footer-widgets-1.widgets { word-wrap: break-word; margin-bottom: 10; } ``` * How should I format the CSS to place into Simple Custom CSS plugin? * Thanks again – I appreciate your help. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Easy Google Fonts] How to alter hypertext links after using Font Controls?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-alter-hypertext-links-after-using-font-controls/) * Thread Starter [monsterman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/monsterman/) * (@monsterman) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-alter-hypertext-links-after-using-font-controls/#post-5560668) * Worked great thanks! * I managed to find the CSS myself with Firebug.

Your code did edit the left widget. * My impression is that Firebug is superior to the Inspect Element. * I’ll install it and see if I can reproduce what you achieved. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [How to find CSS for footer widget?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-find-css-for-footer-widget/) * Thread Starter [monsterman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/monsterman/) * (@monsterman) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-find-css-for-footer-widget/#post-5557925) * This is exactly how I found the CSS for the middle and right widgets. * I used the Inspect Element of Firefox. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [How to add bullet points?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-add-bullet-points/) * Thread Starter [monsterman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/monsterman/) * (@monsterman) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-add-bullet-points/#post-5556469) * Thanks – this worked. * I put the HTML as you suggested.

In other words: is there a guide which spells out how to understand what each line of style.css actually does? * Thanks! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [How to increase margin whitespace on homepage?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-increase-margin-whitespace-on-homepage/) * Thread Starter [monsterman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/monsterman/) * (@monsterman) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-increase-margin-whitespace-on-homepage/#post-5497637) * Here is my site’s home page: [http://www.ripponacademic.com/](http://www.ripponacademic.com/) * I have tried to reduce the size of the photo but all that happens is that the photo gets smaller from the left side.
