The submit button is not displaying for the eNews extended widget. Works for the comment form and other functions which use the button but not with eNews. Working locally.

Hello Brad,

This is something you would need to ask the plugin’s author/developer in order to get the proper solution since this wasn’t developed by us.

Let us know if you have any other questions.

Thanks

From Brandon.

Hey Brad, It’s totally a feature of Epik, if you will. Check out the CSS (I’m looking at the theme demo’s since I don’t own it). Starting at line 2141, that set of rules is to hide the submit button. Can you let them know that their issue is with their CSS too? Thanks!

I’ll chime in since I created the theme. If you look around line 2141, you can replace that code with this code –

`.enews input[type=”submit”],
.search-form input[type=”submit”] {
border: 0;
clip: rect(0, 0, 0, 0);
margin: 15px 0;
overflow: hidden;
padding: 10px 20px;
}`

….and then you can make your adjustments from there.

This was designed based on the Genesis Sample theme at the time, and I like to leave some of the basic code inside while adding my own design around it. So they must of had it set to hide it by default in the Sample theme. The above code should fix it though.

Its a great theme Wes. I’ve already written half a post on it and will finish the post once i’ve finished the site.

Looking forward to working with the portfolio page as it looks great on the demo.

Thanks for the help.

Got it fixed no problem just not sure why it displays full width by default.

You can add a width to tha same code above like this –

width: 250px;

Then adjust as needed.

That fixes the enews form in the widget areas but not the home page slider area.
`
input, select, textarea .widget {
width: 20%;
padding: 0.6rem 0.925rem;
}
`

This fixes the enews form on the home page but then the footer widget is messed up.

The code I posted was for the enews widget not the slider.

This is all you should add/adjust for the enews widget –

`.enews input[type=”submit”] {
border: 0;
clip: rect(0, 0, 0, 0);
margin: 15px 0;
overflow: hidden;
padding: 10px 20px;
width: 20%;
}
`

If you are having separate issues with the slider, then just create a new topic/thread for it since this thread is for the enews widget.

Also, do you have a link that we can take a look at?

Not using the Slider. Simply using the eNews widget in the Slider widget area on the home page.Your code fixes the eNews widget in most areas but not when placed in the home page slider widget area.

Maybe it might be the CSS for the home page slider widget area thats the problem?

Working locally.

This code fixes the width problem when using the eNews widget in the slider widget area on the home page:
`
input, select, textarea .widget {
width: 20%;
padding: 0.6rem 0.925rem;
}
`

But then the eNews widget in the footer has a tiny input area for the email address.

It works fine for me….I just placed it in the slider area on a local install, and it works the exact same. Make sure if you added any other custom code that it’s not affecting it.

I would recommend not adding the code that you posted, because that will globally affect all areas of your entire site that use “input”, “select”, “textarea”, and “.widget”. If you add something to it, every other part of your site will be affected. If you need to adjust a certain “input” (for example) then you’ll need to specifically target that particular input by using the class or ID it’s attached to….otherwise you’ll have issues with a bunch of other parts of your site

Let me know if you figure it out…..if not, you would probably have to setup a demo site for me to look at.

It’s almost 2 AM for me, I’m going to try and get some sleep…..

Yes it works in the slider widget area but then when you place eNews in the footer it doesn’t work.

You would have to upload this somewhere where I can actually see it. I would need a live link in order to see the issue.
