 * Hi Aurovrata,
 * Thanks for your quick reply!
 * 1) FAQ #8 it’s says that a /css subfolder and a <your-form-cf7key>.css file should
   be created under theme’s folder.
    I’m using a child theme with a style.css file.
   Can I put CSS instructions there? or only the /css/<your-form-cf7key>.css should
   work?
 * 2) I presume that <your-form-cf7key>.css means the key of my cf7 form.
    For example
   I have a form called [cf7-form cf7key=”contact”], so the name of the css file
   would be: contact-cf7key.css, right?
 * Thanks for any help.
 * Best regards

 * Hi Roberto,
 * you need to put your custom files in the current theme you are using, so if your
   current theme is actually a child theme in a folder called `./my-child-theme/`
   of parent theme in some other folder, then you need to add a file with the following
   path,
 * `wp-content/themes/my-child-theme/css/contact.css`
 * where ‘contact` is the the form key as you correctly identified in your post.
 * please do leave a review on the plugin page if you find this plugin useful.
