 * Sorry, my problem is that I have the web in local now. But my boss say me, remove
   the effect when you submit! 🙂

 * Hi Laura,
 * I know we have a filter to allow you to change that effect, but I don’t know 
   it off the top of my head and my plugin dev is on vacation this week. He will
   be in on Monday and can give a detailed answer then.
 * Thank you,

 * Thank you Tracy, I will wait for a solution.
 * I’ll cross my fingers so that everything will be ok. 🙂

 * Hi Laura,
 * There are three different effects that happen when a form is submitted. (1) The
   form’s opacity is reduced so it appears ‘grayed out’, (2) a ‘spinning gif’ is
   placed on top of the form, and (3) a ‘loading dots’ gif replaces the submit button
   text.
 * Are you trying to remove one of these effects?
 * There’s no way to change the form’s opacity (1).
 * To change (2), the ‘spinning gif’, you can use the filter `yikes-mailchimp-preloader`.
   Here is an example of how to remove it:
 *     ```
       // Remove spinning gif (form gif)
       add_filter( 'yikes-mailchimp-preloader', '__return_false' );
       ```
   
 * To change (3), the ‘loading dots gif’, you are supposed to be able to use the
   filter `yikes-mailchimp-loading-dots` in the same way as the `yikes-mailchimp-
   preloader` filter. However, I just tested it and it appears to be loading a blank/
   broken image instead of removing it. Let me know if this is what you’re trying
   to remove and I can fix this.
 * You can also hide the gifs (2) and (3) using CSS if you’re more comfortable with
   that. Let me know if you’d like me to explain that.
 * Cheers,
    Kevin.

 * My question is along the same lines. I would love to know how to get rid of (
   3) the dots over top of the submit button. Was that fixed?
 * Worst case if I can change the color that the submit button turns when you submit
   the form I can deal with the dots over top. The button changes to a default blue
   on submit, and I can’t figure out the CSS to get that swapped back to my red/
   orange color.

 * Hi [@liljimmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/liljimmi/),
 * He also said the fix I wanted to use (3) “appears to be loading a blank/broken
   image instead of removing it. Let me know if this is what you’re trying to remove
   and I can fix this.”
 * Nothing was said about a fix after that, so I’m not sure that is the correct 
   fix?
 * I also am more concerned with the color of the button changing when I hit submit
   over removing the dots, which wasn’t addressed in this thread. Any ideas?

 * Hi [@b-summers](https://wordpress.org/support/users/b-summers/),
 * There must be some conflict happening between the plugin and your theme’s styles.
 * This CSS will force the button to stay the correct red color through the subscription
   process.
 *     ```
       .yikes-easy-mc-submit-button-2:active, .yikes-easy-mc-submit-button-2:focus, .yikes-easy-mc-submit-button-2[disabled] {
           background-color: #8d2611 !important;
       }
       ```
   
 * Are you familiar with adding custom CSS to your site?
 * Let me know.
 * Cheers,
    Kevin.
