# flick.css is affecting theme

 * Hey guys,
 * the flick.css under /plugins/mailchimp/css/flick/ with it’s classes “ui-widget”,“
   ui-widget-content” and so on, is affecting the style of the theme I’m using right
   now (nova from themesinprogress).
 * I wonder if there is an existing workaround for this.
    For which purpose does
   this file exists?
 * Many thanks in advance!

 * Hey there reeve,
 * Thanks for posting! The flick.css file corresponds to the JS Datepicker, which
   allows date fields, if present, to use a calendar to pick a date from. You can
   certainly disable this feature to remove the flick.css from being present on 
   the page – unchecking the “Use Javascript Datepicker?” option on the plugin settings
   page and hitting Update Subscribe Form Settings will do the trick.
 * Please let me know if there’s anything further I can assist with!

 * This works like a charm.
    Thank you Kath!
 * Maybe your developers can use more mailchimp related css-classnames in future
   releases to prevent such conflicts.
 * While checking the plugin settings i came across the javascript support checkbox.
   I wonder what this really does. In the frontend i didn’t noticed any visual difference.

 * Hi reeve,
 * I’ll definitely pass the feedback about the css filename along to them!
 * As for the Javascript support, when the box is checked and support is enabled,
   the form submission responses are inline. When the box is not checked, the page
   will refresh to display the form submission responses instead. It’s a fairly 
   minor difference. 🙂
