Changing HTML / CSS on MailChimp sign up form

unreel

I've just added a MailChimp sign up form but the formatting is wrong - the boxes overlap. See here - https://www.marktamer.co.uk/Newsletter

I used this tutorial - https://gallery.imagesinthebackcountry.com/Smugmug-customization/Adding-a-Mailchimp-Signup-Form where it suggests deleted the header code and replacing with another version.

Does anyone know which part of the code to change to move the boxes apart? I tried changing a few padding tags but couldn't get anything to work.

Many thanks

I forgot to add the code used:


<div id="mc_embed_signup">

Find this: #mc_embed_signup input.button {display:block; width:35%; margin:0 0 10px 0; min-width:90px;}

Add some top margin: margin: 20px 0 10px 0;.

Just for reference for margin/padding, 'Top', Right, 'Bottom', 'Left'.

Thanks - I gave it go but without luck. It now reads:

#mc_embed_signup input.button {display:block; width:15%; margin:30px 30 30px 30; min-width:90px;}

I'm not seeing your change in the code. Also margin:30px 30 30px 30; is missing px on the 30. It can be 0, but if you want a value, you need to specify the units, like px, %, em etc.

I'm assuming you want to move the subscribe button. If that isn't what you want then, be more specific.

Thanks - I made the change. For some reason the Name field has narrowed. I can live with that but not sure why it changed
