Multiple Checkbox list is putting all options on one line

    Hey there!

    I’m trying to create a database that allows users to check what items they would want from me (ie a Sign, Sticker, Shirt) but when I use the out of the box template my list is all on one line. So it looks like:

    What you []Sign []Sticker []Shirt []Other:
    want: [ ]

    And I want it to look like:

    What you []Sign
    want: []Sticker
    []Shirt
    []Other: [ ]

    Does this make sense? Do you know what I can do to fix it?

    Thanks,

    Jack

    Jack,

    The easiest way to do this is to edit your theme stylesheet and give the checkbox label a “display:block”

    Can’t tell you exactly how because it depends on your theme. There’s no plugin settings that can change this.

    Xnau,

    Thanks for the response. I’ve tried both of these and can’t seem to get it to work. I’m putting it in the styles.css which my theme links to:

    form input[type=”checkbox”] {display:block;}

    AND

    .checkboxes label
    {
    display: block;
    float: left;
    padding-right: 10px;
    white-space: nowrap;
    }

    .checkboxes input
    {
    vertical-align: middle;
    }

    .checkboxes label span
    {
    vertical-align: middle;
    }

    None of these work. Any other ideas?

    Thanks,

    Jack

    So i think I’m just going to manually create the form. Gives me more control over it. Thanks for your help!

    jack3,

    It’s not working because your selector isn’t overriding the style that was set by another stylesheet. I just gave you the basic idea, you have to adapt it to your own site according to what your theme is doing.
