I have built a form but I need to be able to centre some text and fields - currently the are left justified. Any idea how I can do that please? I want to centre "May we add you to our occasional mailing list?" and the yes/no buttons below.

Use this specific sxtra code for your mail form (Place it in the Page Properties before closing the HEAD tag)

<style>
#imObjectForm_2_form label {
text-align: center !important;
}
</style>

Ah sorry, I read your request better, I read it quickly ... You want to center only certain texts ...

Yes thanks - I am happy where the top fields are. I just want to centre the last text and the two yes/no option buttons.

Thanks Axel - but it isn't quite the answer!

I only want to centre the last item of text and the two option buttons underneath. Guiseppe's answer doesn't quite do that and I can't work out how to do it unless I open it up in an editor which I would really rather not do if I can avoid it!

Many thanks,

Duncan

Hello Duncan,

This CSS can be added in the 'Expert' tab of the page containing the form... 'Before closing the BODY tag'

<style>

#imObjectForm_2_4_label {text-align: center !important;}

#imObjectForm_2_4_wrapper {display: flex; justify-content: center;}

#imObjectForm_2_4_container {padding-left: 45px;}

#imObjectForm_2_4_field {padding-right: 0px}

</style>

The existing form fields themselves are not precisely centred.  If you compare the left and right margins of the form container then you will see what I mean.  As a result you might want to tweak the numerical values (in pixels/px) for padding-left and padding-right until you are personally happy with the result.

Kind regards,

Paul
