Having some strange problems for the footer subscribe area. We use Aweber for our newsletter so we are having to use “bloom” widget instead of the mail chimp which you have stylized for. There is some funkiness I think with the CSS – think it conflicts a little with the widget. For the most part, I’ve kind of worked around it. I had to use this CSS code:

/*- footer newsletter subscribe -*/
.footer-subscribe .layout-medium,
.footer-subscribe .layout-medium .link-box {
max-width: 450px;
}

Otherwise the widget was super wide. Also, I think the form input area – background and text (’email’) is effected.

I wanted to try and make it work because I liked the full width background color effect.

Also, for some reason the widget does not show on our ‘about’ page >> http://tbd.wpstagecoach.com/about/

You have any suggestions or solutions?

Thanks!

update: I figured out the last problem (not showing on about page). That is ok now.

Hi,
You can try to use this custom css code;

.et_bloom .et_bloom_form_container .et_bloom_form_content .et_bloom_popup_input input { max-width: none; }

Thanks

That at least made the email input area the same width as the subscribe button. So that is better. I am using this code to make the widget an acceptable width:

.footer-subscribe .layout-medium,
.footer-subscribe .layout-medium .link-box {
max-width: 490px;
}

If I don’t do that code, the widget form stretches across most the page and is super wide. I really don’t know that much about css, so was that the proper way to keep it only 490px wide?

I was just wondering if there was anything (code wise) that would say ignore all the css that is built-in for just that section, so that then would not interfere with whatever I put in there.

But if that is not possible, the only other thing that would be cool to do would be to be able to make that email input area like the same widget that is in the sidebar. The email word is black and bold and it should be light grey and centered.

Thanks for all your help!

Hi, we can’t provide support for third party plugins, you may contact to plugin author or you may consider hiring an expert at wpkraken.io.

Hoping that you come up with an email subscribe widget that you have styled to work in that footer area that is more than just mailchimp! For us it is Aweber.

Thanks!
