[SOLVED] Help styling NMS subscribe form

Post by elkman »

NMS and so many of the other mods are great.  I realize that many, many hours of time have been spent creating and offering all of the mods for free.  Just outstanding work creating the mods.

I am having the same common problem I read everywhere.  Without demos or basic layouts available, we (new users) must constantly ask for help in the forums regarding almost every module.  I feel bad asking the developer's or forum user's for their time to get answers to what they must feel are the same basic questions over and over again.  Regular forum searches usually aren't very helpful in finding solutions to specific questions like the one below.

Having said that, can anyone tell me exactly where I need to go to modify the standard NMS subscribe form that appears when the tag {NMS} is used?  I need to shorten the data lines for the email address and user name.

In the admin for NMS there is a tab for the template where you can add divs etc. to it so you can target it with CSS...

Thank you Dr. CSS for your time to respond.  If I am understanding correctly, I simply need to create the CSS and then use the correct DIV tags to hold the {NMS} tag.

You can wrap the NMS tag in a div with class or ID and use that to style it or change the default template in NMS admin and use div/span/etc. around the calls for input etc. then use CSS to style it, lots of ways to do it...
