Form doesn't fit in a sidebar text widget..

Hi antaylor111, can you post here your URL with the contact form added on the sidebar.

Kind regards

Hi, the site isn’t completed yet but I’ve made this page viewable in this case https://www.nt-music.com/about

Thanks!

Hi antaylor111, if this is the form you are going to add to your sidebar you need to reduce the max-width from 555px to something that fits inside your sidebar widget. See the example below.

element.style {
width: 99%;
max-width: 155px;
}

Regards

Ok I see. I am a beginner – please can you tell me where I would find and edit this text.

Thank you.

Ok I changed this in the style settings (is that the right way?) and now the form itself is much narrower but the form is still presenting itself at the bottom of the page…? https://www.nt-music.com/about

Thanks.

Hi your theme structure is not correct. I can’t see a sidebar widget. What theme are you using? You will have to get in contact with your theme developers in regards to sidebar widgets.

Kind regards

Hi

there is a sidebar text widget – you can see the ‘Contact Me’ title to the right of the page, the form should be fitting in right underneath but I am not sure why it isn’t. If I insert normal text instead of the form,then the text appears on the right hand side fine, just the form is not going there for some reason.

The theme developer said I should get in touch with you ??

Thanks.

Can you add some text to the sidebar so that I can see for myself. What theme are you using?

Thank you.

Hi, I just added some text there so you can see.

The theme is this one https://themes.bavotasan.com/themes/matheson-pro/
There is also a free version available if you wanted to check out what was going on.

Thanks.

Hi, thank you I see the text now. Well I don’t know why it is not showing perhaps you can try WordPress default theme Twenty Thirteen just for a test and see if the form appears on the sidebar.

Kind regards

Hi, I just did a test with my theme and without even touching my form settings I was able to display the form on the sidebar without any problems.

Kind regards

Ok, I will inform the theme developer

thanks.

Thank you, I look forward to your reply.

Kind regards

You are right in that I think it is an issue specific to that particular theme since I also tried it in two other themes (including another premium theme by the same developer!) and both times the form appeared perfectly in the sidebar. I’ve notified the developer, hopefully he will fix it soon.

Many thanks.

Hi antaylor111, I am happy to hear that you have found the issue. I hope the developer fixes that problem for you soon.

If your question has been answered could you mark this support thread as resolved.

Kind regards
