Hi,

Been doing a lot of restyling/editing with child theme. But contact for 7 (which I believe comes bundled up with the theme as an included plugin) will not override its submit button background colour.

I am trying to override this within my child themes stylesheet but no luck. It is still showing the themes default turquoise colour #07c1b6. On inspection, somewhere it is being styled with an !important command. I have tried overriding it with adding my own !important after my css but this doesn’t do it. I can make it override while inspecting (in safari or firefox firebug) but when I replicate this css in my stylesheet it does not override. Rather annoying.

Any fixes for this? I need it to match the rest of the sites styling of buttons and hovers for coherency.

Many Thanks

Thanks 🙂

Just tried your proposed solution but it does not work. I cannot figure out how to override the default styling of the button..

Any help would be greatly appreciated..
