NMS subscribe form in sidebar

Post by lleighh »

I'm having trouble reducing the width of this NMS subscribe form in the right sidebar.

http://newdaypublishing.net/index.php?page=products

It's calling id m3email. When I define that id in my style sheet it doesn't respond. Where is this id? How can I limit the width to the sidebar?

Thanks.

I have the same problem and the Help does not provide any idea of how to adjust the size of the form. I tried to look through the codes and template files to find a way to size the form, but had no success. Does anyone know how to adjust the size of the subscribe form to fit in a side panel?

Regards,
Jeff

the width of each text box can be controlled by css. Look for the id of the txt box. In the default template I believe the email box is #m4email and the name box #m4username, so in your css put something like

#m4username {width:100px;}
#m4email {width:100px;}

Thanks that worked for the the email and username input fields. I guess I'll have to accept the checkbox and submit button styles for now, unless someone knows the IDs for these form elements. Hopefully, additional informatoin will be added to the help on the form element ids.

The web developer toolbar for firefox is great for finding tags and id's
