    Hi there,
    I am trying to use a form on top of the slider in this theme. I am finding it difficult to find a plugin that works well and looks well on mobile devices.
    I have used Contact Form 7 which besides crashing the navigation menu doesn’t work well from a responsive point of view on a mobile devices (specifically iPhone).

    I am currently using Wyjiya Newsletter which thankfully doesn’t crash the navigation menu but it doesn’t work well in responsive mode with the slider.

    Any advice and suggestions would be very much appreciated.

    Thanks in advance
    Dave

    Hello,

    Please add this code in custom.css file:

    @media (max-width: 480px) { input[type=submit] {
    width: 100px;
    height: 20px;
    font-size: 8px !important;
    }
    input[type="text"] {
    width: 100px;
    }
    }

    Thank you.

    Hi Eva,
    Thanks for that.
    This resolves the problem in portrait orientation but not in landscape orientation when I look at it on my iPhone. Also when you then click in to the boxes text doesn’t appear when typed?

    Hello,

    Try to add this code into custom.css file.

    @media (min-width: 480px) and (max-width: 767px) {
    input[type=submit] {
    width: 100px;
    height: 20px;
    font-size: 8px !important;
    }
    input[type="text"] {
    width: 100px;
    }
    }

    I don’t see that you created custom.css file or Child Theme. We strongly recommended do all changes there.

    Regards,
    Robert Hall.

    Robert,
    That resolved the issue when the site is viewed in landscape format on mobile.
    Any clues/advice on the issue with the text not appearing when typed in the boxes?

    Or maybe there is an alternate form plugin that you would recommend using with the Royal Theme/Revolution slider?

    Eva/Robert
    I tried that piece of code but it did not work. Text is still not appearing when in portrait orientation only in landscape. If you type some text in portrait orientation and the turn the device to landscape you can see what you have typed but you cannot see it otherwise.
    Thoughts/advice?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello,

    Where are you making changes?
    As I see you have the file default.custom.css which must be renamed to custom.css and the code we provided must be inserted in there.

    How to create custom.css you can watch in this tutorial (it’s for Legenda theme but the process is the same).

    Thank you.

    Eva Kemp.

    Hi Eva,

    I am operating as the go-between as I am not making the changes but rather they are being made by another programmer (I am not a programmer) that I am communicating with.
    Apparently he says that he placed the code in the header.php file thinking that this would achieve the same thing. Is this not the case?
    WIll it make a difference if he puts it in the custom.css file?
    Thanks for your help and your immense patience with me 😉
