Pre-Field Text Issue
December 21, 2012, 07:57:44 am
I am having an issue with the Pre-Field text running into the actual label text for the Field.

I recreated the problem on the demo, by adding some Pre Help text to a Marital Status Field under "Your Registration Info" here's the link to the problem:

Your demo is not there, but this sounds like a CSS issue that can be fixed via your template's CSS.

I'm not sure why someone removed it....but I just put the text back in so it can be seen. It's not a template issue from what I can see. I've tried several CSS overrides to no avail.

I've been trying to locate the original file for the registration form and possibly add another line break, but there are so many files I'm not sure which one is the right one to modify.

If you use set the description as display: block it appears to fix this particular issue.  You'd need to do specific targeting, and then set your margins and paddings separately.

@kharding - Thank you for the tip..I was approaching that issue from the wrong angle. I just added the following to my templates main CSS file:

#crm-container .description, #crm-container .crm-clear-link {
    display: block !important;
}

Worked like a charm. Thanks again :)
