Form Style

Form Style defines the look and feel of your forms on the front end to site visitors. To configure, head over to Global Settings >> General Settings. It comprises of two modules: Theme and Form Layout.

Theme

There are three options you can use in the ‘theme’ attribute:

1. Default No form selected
   • The Default option applies the default design of RegistrationMagic forms regardless of the WordPress theme you are using.
2. Classic No form selected
   • • The Classic option applies a set neutral tone that looks pleasing with all kinds of WordPress themes. This is a neutral style that uses light greys, blacks, and whites tailored to fit into most themes’ color schemes. Buttons are gradients of yellow. The success message also uses the same theme.
3. Match My Theme No form selected
   • The Match My Theme option will let forms pick visual elements automatically from your active WordPress theme. This is an adaptive style that tries to establish form elements from your current WordPress theme. The labels are listed on top of the fields. Since there is no exact science behind creativity, it may not work sometimes exactly as intended. With each revision, we try to support more themes. If the button style does not match, don’t fret, there is an option in Form Settings to custom style the buttons.

We would recommend trying all three styles to see which one suits your theme best. If you have experience in CSS and HTML, you can easily customize the form look to suit your requirements.

Form Layout

You can specify one of the three layouts:

1. Label left
   • Field labels are on the left side of the fields.
2. Label Top
   • Field labels are rendered on top of the fields.
3. Two Columns
   • Fields are divided into two columns. This layout is useful for long forms and wide screens. Note that this layout is available only with the Classic theme.

You can configure finer aspects of form look such as label color, background, etc., from the Design menu in form-specific settings.
