 * Great plugin by the way.
 * However I am not well versed in CSS so could you please help me from going mad.
 * I’m to make my questionaire more readable. I have already found the following
   CSS from this forum:
 * div.ss-q-title {
    font-weight: bold; }
 * 1. However the questions still look squashed together so, I was looking to be
   put a space after each question.
 * 2. My first three questions are: Title, First Name and Last Name is it possible
   to put this all on the same row?
 * 3. further down I have a drop down box named “school” and under that I have “
   County”. Can County come up on the same line as “School”?
 * These or any other ways of making the question more readable would be much appreciated.

 * Because most WordPress sites have a unique theme, there is no single answer to
   CSS questions like this. If you’d like me to look at your form, you can fill 
   out my [Help and Support Form](http://bit.ly/wpgform) and I’ll take a look when
   I get a few minutes.

   be able to remove my last comment.

 * Adding space is pretty simple, you could use something like this:
 *     ```
       div.ss-q-title {
           font-weight: bold;
           margin-top: 100px;
       }
       ```
   
 * The 100px value can be tuned to your liking. I used 100px because it will really
   create a lot of space so it is very noticeable. Your #1 and #3 requests are essentially
   the same. You want to move things so they are “inline”.
 * Can this be done? Yes, technically it is possible. However it isn’t simple because
   there are no block level elements surrounding just those elements that can be
   styled “inline”. The only way I know to do this would be to use a jQuery script
   that manipulates the DOM and add a DIV (which can be styled) around the form 
   elements. As I said, technically possible but not easy to do and certainly outside
   the scope of something I could answer on this forum.

 * Fully understand, that’s fantastic thank you.
 * One last tweak, idea.
 * Is it easy to have different space between the scale questions and the text, 
   drop down and date questions?

 * Do you mean you want more space between the “County” question (which has a drop
   down) and the “I’m good at finding words to describe my feelings” question and
   the other scale questions after that?
 * In looking at the HTML there isn’t anything obvious to use as a selector however
   it might be possible to get creative and use the table which surrounds the scale
   and CSS predecessor selectors to select the surrounding DIV. Maybe.

 * The first 7 questions, particularly Title, First Name, Last Name seem to a bit
   far apart but the numbered questions there after could be spaced out further.
 * I have no idea how to do what you suggest in the second paragraph, but in short
   if you have any ideas on how to change the CSS to improve the readability of 
   this questionnaire.

 * Sorry for the delayed response. I have been traveling quite a bit for work the
   past couple weeks which has limited my ability to look into support questions.
 * I went to look at your form again but it isn’t at the URL any longer. Is this
   still an issue?

 * Sorry, it is on the same domain but it has been moved to:
 * /mindfulness-schools/questionnaire/
