 * Hey,
 * Great plugin 🙂 sorry this is a pretty noob question. What do I type into the‘
   assign button class’ in order to use custom css for it?
 * I typed in #Disqus but it doesn’t seem to work.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi,
    That field is optional. If you have any button classes used in in your theme
   you can add that here. Otherwise it will display default button. You can add 
   custom css for a button and add that class here if you want to style the look
   of your button 🙂

 * Hi Joel,
 * thanks for the prompt reply. What I meant what, how do I go about creating a 
   class specifically for your plugin’s button? I do have a button class in my theme
   but if I add CSS to it, it affects all my buttons; I only want to customize yours.
 * Thanks!

 * You can use that button class here (theme button). Or you can **add new** class
   and some custom css to your theme style.css file. It will not affect your theme.
   You don’t have modify any button styles for this plugin.
    I recommend using existing
   button class or adding new button style

 * [@robert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robert/):
 * if it gets you any further – (and if someone else knows better than me, please
   correct!)
 * a class in css starts with a period, so a button class would be = .button
 * i entered “.disqus-button” and then it was automatically styled (as Joel said
   above) by the button class already in my css.
 * it happened to be styled with a white background, so I just modified that aspect
   of the css, so we’ll see if i screwed anything else up, but it looks ok so far.
 * i’m using a genesis theme, if it matters.
 * the css ended up looking like this:
 *     ```
       .modern-portfolio-pro-red button {
       background-color: #222;
       color: #fff;
       }
       ```
   
 * hope that helps. and if anything’s off, i’d love to know. trying to learn as 
   i go.

 * Hi evarubin,
    Is this class (modern-portfolio-pro-red) already exist in your 
   style? If you modify existing style, it may affect your theme. So check before
   proceeding. If you added this class as new one, you are good to go !!

 * but what if you want to make the button large? would you need custom css or can
   you use some type of existing style that the default theme already uses for the
   buttons, for example “btn-lg” or something of sorts

 * Hi Dperezr,
 * Yes. You can simply use the button class from your theme. For eg: btn-lg.
 * Just add that class in button class option. Thats it.
