How do I change the drop-down menu font?

Postby marlosb » Tue Mar 13, 2012 6:44 pm

The only thing on my whole website that has a different font is the drop-down menu where you choose which size to buy.

How do I change it to the website default font so everything will look the same?

Thanks

Hi,

Do you have multiple forms on your site?

If not, it should be pretty simple to alter your CSS and add a font declaration for you form. If so, then it is still possible. It will just take a few extra steps.

Let me know. I am in the middle of putting together a tutorial for the later.

~ Best regards

Hi Michael, thanks for your answer, I'm really not a code guy, so I'm not sure what you mean by "multiple forms".

What I have is different products and each of them have 4 different sizes: mini, small, medium and big.

By the way, those are exactly the words that need to have their font fixed.

Did that help you in any way?!

Thanks again,

Marlos

Hi Marlos,

No worries, I have just about finished building out a prototype for a new release of the nice paypal button plugin. This new release will have extended layout features. With this new version you'll still need to alter your site CSS. But, this is a relatively simple task and I can provide you with the instructions on how to do this. I should be finished sometime today. Which version of joomla are you using?

~ All the best

Well, I'm not sure what is a "joomla" as well.

I've just bought the "Nice Paypal Button" and installed and activated it on Wordpress 3.3.1.

My plugin's version is 1.03

Is that of any help?

Thanks again,

Marlos

Hi Marlos,

Thanks for the info. I thought you where using the plugin for Joomla, because you posted in the Joomla section of the forum instead of the WordPress area.

This changes things a bit. The new revision of the plugin, that I was mentioned, is for the Joomla system.

Let's take a step back then. Is there a link that you can provide me, where I can take a look at your form?

~ Thanks

It's actually under construction so I sent you a private message with a username and password...

Thanks

Hi Michael, did you get the message? I used the "private message" under the "user control panel"...

And, by the way, sorry for posting on the wrong place, I had no idea that I did that...

Thanks again,

Hi,

You could try appending the following to your themes CSS.

Code: Select all
input[type="text"] select
{
font-family: verdana;
}


This may change the font face for other forms on your site. If it does, then let me know and we'll come up with a different solution.

Hi Marlos,

I had some extra time over the weekend. I used it to build a new revision of the plugin for you. The new revision offers some features that will solve your field text issues. To implement it, do the following.

*Back up your site before proceeding.

1. Download the new revision from your original download page.
2. Unzip the download package.
3. Upload the plugin folder to your site over the top of the original plugin folder, wp-content/plugins/
4. Go to the plugin options page wp-admin>>Settings>>Nice PayPal Button
5. Find the fields labeled "<div> Class Name" and "<form> Class Name".
6. Enter the following into the respective field

<div> Class Name: nicepaypal-wrap
<form> Class Name: nicepaypal-form

7. Save your option changes.
8. FTP to your site's theme folder, wp-content/themes/yoursitestheme/
9. find the CSS file for the theme and download it. It may be named "style.css".
10. Open your theme file in a simple text editor, e.g. MS Notepad.
11. Scroll to the bottom of the file.
12. Add the following to the bottom of the file. (You can change the font family to your desired font).

Code: Select all
.nicepaypal-form input[type="text"]{
  font-family: verdana;
}
.nicepaypal-form select{
  font-family: verdana;
}


13. Save your changes.
14. Upload the CSS file back to its original location.

You may need to refresh your browser several times for the changes to take effect.

~ Enjoy

Hi Michael, thanks for your reply, I have a very simple question though:

How do I download the new version of the Nice Pay Pal Button from http://trinitronic.com/index.php/WordPr ... utton.html without having to pay again for it?

I've been to my Wordpress website looking for a plugin update instead but I couldn't find it as well.

Thanks again for your patience,

Marlos

Hi Marlos,

In your original email notification there was a link to a download page. Revisit this link. On the download page, you will be able to download the plugin again.

If you have lost the original email notification, just let me know. I will need your PayPal transaction id or PayPal account email address from the original purchase. You can email this information to me. Then I can look up your account and send you a new link.

All the best,

Michael
