  Hi, I have a contact form on my site that I’d like to custumize a bit. Here’s what I want to do. The brackets represent the edit boxes. [] name [] email [] subject [] message. I want it to display like this, name [] email [] subject [] message [] is there any way I can do this?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Try the code below. If you don’t want the input boxes to be aligned then you can always replace the width with a padding-right value in pixels:

  form.contact-form p label {float:left; width:20%;}

  Thanks! I don’t currently have custum CSS, but when that happens I’ll do that.

  You can edit the Contact form shortcode somewhat. See here:

  I have this support document, but it doesn’t give anything on editing like I want.

  What you want is not exactly possible without the CSS upgrade.

  In that case then this topic is resolved.
