Looking for an easy way to style submit button in WordPress without mastering the code and writing your own CSS rules? Learning CSS can be time-consuming. Editing your style sheet in your WordPress theme might not be such a good idea either.
Spare yourself from the headache the form design can bring and learn how to easily customize your submit button using our styling plugin Layout and Styles. Let’s begin!
Customize your submit button with our styling plugin
An attractive form design and an effective CTA button is the ultimate weapon to get attention to your form. If you want to style your submit button and you are using Ninja Forms free core plugin, get your hands on the Layout and Styles add-on.
The way our form styling plugin works is by adding 2 new features to your WordPress website:
- Styles setting under each form field. This field has multiple settings that vary from the type of field. This means the Submit button will have different Styles settings such as the Radio field, etc.
- Styling settings under Ninja Forms in your WordPress dashboard to configure the add-on. This is the place where you can apply the style across all your forms. This can be incredibly helpful if you have multiple WordPress forms but don’t want to style your button each time you create a new form.
Our Layout and Styles add-on helps you make the styling changes such as color, shape, size, border, width, height, and more without the use of code. Additionally, it also gives you the ability to bring any change you have in your mind outside of existing Style Settings using CSS terminology.
This setting can be found under each styling section of the field. Just toggle on the Show Advanced CSS Properties section and you have the flexibility to style your submit button and forms even further!
How to change the color of your submit button in WordPress
Changing the color of the submit button is probably one of the first things you will want to do on your WordPress form. The color of the CTA button plays a significant role in your form as research proves that colors affect conversion rate. So let’s start there by taking a look at how you can easily change the color of your contact form button!
Navigate to your Submit button field and click on the Styles settings. This will unwrap multiple sections including Wrap Styles, Element Styles, and Element Hover Styles. We will change the color of the submit button using the section Element Styles.
