Hello,
I want to Change some things in my css style Sheets. I have found out, that I have to use event_espresso_style.css and I have to activate it in the General Settings -> Advanced Features -> Enable default style sheet by setting that to Yes. BUT – I can’t find it in the german Version. Can anyone tell me, where I can find it?
I have the Version Event Espresso – 3.1.33.3.P, and WordPress 3.5.2.
Best regards,
Erich

Hi Erich,
This sounds like some older instructions for an older version of Event Espresso. I don’t think event_espresso_style.css is used anymore. In the newer versions you move a copy of the espresso_default.css file into the wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates/css directory and it will automatically load from there, no activation is required.
The one thing you may need to do is deactivate the Themeroller option if it’s been activated.

Hi Josh,
thank you for this Information. I have tried to copy and change the css files as you described, when I copy it to the wp-content/uploads/espresso/templates/css Directory. But nothing really happened.
One thing would be very important – I want to change the height of the textboxes and the padding between them, so that you can see more textboxes on your screen.
Best regards,
Erich

Hi Erich,
You have the stylesheet in the correct place, and I have confirmed on my local test site that it will effectively modify the forms etc, so I can only assume your CSS isn’t targeting correctly.
To test if your stylesheet is working, you could temporarily add this to the bottom of it:
.span_event_date_label,
.span_event_time_label,
.event_price_label{
background-color:yellow;
}
You will then see something like this in an event http://d.pr/i/JN3q Obviously this is just to test to to confirm the stylesheet is active.

Hello Dean,
thank you for your fast reply.
I tried to add your proposed text, but nothing happened (and I surely have deactivated the themeroller Stylesheets).
Best regards,
Erich

Hi,
Did you remove the CSS afterwards as I cannot see it in the file? Did you clear your cache after making any changes to the CSS (I see you have a caching plugin active)?

Hello Dean,
I removed the caching and tried out in firefox (where I didn’t try it before). There is also no effect.
In general changes in that directory are working, as I changed the registration_page_display.php file and could see the changes.
I think I got the problem – it is not the event-espresso-style.css, but the espresso-default.css. When I paste your code into that file and load it to the Destination /css folder, it works!
Now my last question is – how to change the vertical spaces between the textboxes, so that I can display more of them within the registration form.
Best regards,
Erich

I think I found it here (I set it to 1px up/down):
.event_espresso_form_wrapper fieldset div { margin:1px 0 1px; clear: both; }
Best regards,
Erich
