Hi,

Spotted this issue with the bottom margins of ".moduletable ul" affecting my contact form:

...in terms of the above, I believe the bottom margin to be excessive.

Thanks

This site isn't live...it's the same local site from my other threads.
The contact form in use is Fox Contact.

It looks like you need to adjust styling from the contact form but can't be sure without seeing the site

If you look at the image to the bottom right, if I disable/change the margin there then that sorts out the issue...and it indicates that that property is in a stylesheet under "/templates/buildr/css/" - so is this not a template issue?

It looks like a style from the template that is affecting this particular extension

So you need to add some css so the custom style is more specific to the particular module/extension

It's not a bug - it's the extension using generalised styling by the look of it and not using any specific classes.

Thanks, I'll try and figure out what to do or maybe provide a link once live - I know the extension uses bootstrap so it should pick up Buildr's Bootstrap3 form styling, right?

On a separate note, I looked at blankly and noticed that your dropdown isn't styled 100% correctly:

...I was looking to see if you guys still style the form elements, so I looked at Blankly to compare my issue with your styling, but I couldn't seem to find it...can I locate your full form styles anywhere?

...to be a little more clear, in the image the dropdown downward pointing arrow box has a border or radius that doesn't look completely right (thought I'd point it out).

The shadow effect on the trigger? the Reason for contacting bit?

Yes, the reason for contacting bit - the grey rectangle's corners look like they don't have the border going around them (not sure if this is a issue or not but I thought I'd point it out).

Apart from that, as above, would it be possible for you to point me to the styling for form elements page (if there is one with all the bootstrap controls - I only found the page above in blankly)?

Hi Aadil,

I think it's the browser default styling for focus on forms - so it would vary a little between browsers

Sorry I think we may have been considering differing things

bambootheme.com/showcase/apr16/template-features/2014-11-26-01-53-00/bootstrap2-tests

Has the form styling for bootstrap2

Is this what you are looking for?

Hi Paul,

Thanks, that was what I was looking for - any idea why these bootstrap tests aren't part of blankly?

Hi,

In terms of the bottom margin issue - I found out it was only affecting my contact form in the module position (and not the component on it's own page).

So to remove the unnecessary margin applied to Fox Contact's module dropdown-select box: in the Fox Contact module, you need to go to Advanced>Module Style & select 'none' under 'System' - I don't know why this works?

Do you guys still believe this issue is to do with Fox Contact not being specific enough or could this be a template issue?
