How do I remove mcsignup from the Module Style

How do I remove mcsignup from the Module Style? I'm using a Joomla template that has module styles and I would like my MailChimp to use the same module styles provided by my Joomla template.

I tried simply entering the style suffix into the Module Parameters however it doesn't appear correctly on the front end and when I look at the HTML Source Code I can see that the Module is still calling mcsignup class. Its actually trying to read both styles (suffix) mcsignup and the one provided by my template. Which is causing design issues.



joomlamailer version: 1.7.2
Joomla! version: 1.5.23
PHP version:
MySQL version:

Hi,

You shouldn't alter the classes/IDs of the signup module since they are used by the javascript to validate the form. However, you can remove the stylesheet that comes with the signup module. Either edit the file: /modules/mod_mailchimpsignup/tmpl/default.php and remove line 23 where it says: $doc->addStyleSheet( JURI::root().'modules/mod_mailchimpsignup/assets/css/default.css' );
You can also edit the stylesheet file and remove everything in it: modules/mod_mailchimpsignup/assets/css/default.css

Please make sure to repeat this after you upgrade joomlamailer since the modified files will be overwritten.

Kind regards,
Pete

Hi Pete,

I tried both options: edited line 23 on the /modules/mod_mailchimpsignup/tmpl/default.php file and I also edited the modules/mod_mailchimpsignup/assets/css/default.css file and both options did not work. It's acting as if the default.css file is not related.

Thanks,

I would also like to know how to do this. I want mcsignup to use the DEFAULT styling of all other modules. I can delete the line 23 or all the content in default.css but it still doesnt look styled correctly. For example the "Submit" button. Just basic windows 7 style button.

In this case your template's stylesheet seems to use additional classes to refer to the different elements. I could only guess what that might be. Please post a link to your site and I'll let you know what you need to do.

Kind regards,
Pete

Looks like it works. The input field and the button are styled like other input fields and buttons on your site. Am I missing something?

It's a little different, the text is more to the right and is more black than grey like the header up top. I got it to that point but it's just not quite right. Although I'm not going to be too picky about it. If it is a simple fix than great.. but if it's too complicated than I'm not going to worry about it.

brandonjjon What did you do to get your form to match your website?

Hi Pete,

Our site is still under construction and password protected but here's a link to a screenshot of how the Joomlamailer form looks. The fields are missing.
