Input BG color changes when clicked

    Hi there, I’m having an issue with my input box bg color disappearing when it’s clicked, and then not being able to see the text that’s typed in until you click back out of the box (at which point the bg color comes back). I have searched other user submitted questions on this forum, but nothing quite hit the mark.

    I’m looking to have a black bg with white text. I input this code:
    .mc4wp-form-fields input {
    background-color: black !important;
    color: white !important;
    }

    But it only changed the bg, and not the text. Also, it doesn’t solve the issue of the BG disappearing when clicked on to input.

    *The form submission I speak of is in our footer*

    try

    background: black !important;

    (without -color).

    Note that custom CSS is out of scope for our free support, especially since these things can easily be setup without any custom code in our Premium addon. So I will not be able to help you any further with this.

    Kind regards,

    Thank you for your quick response. Unfortunately, that adjustment didn’t change anything. It’s more about getting the bg to stay put when typing in to the form.

    I understand if this isn’t covered under free support. Appreciate the response.

    I do have another issue, but should I perhaps start a new ticket?

    Since this wasn’t actually resolved, can it remain open in case another user has any suggestions they can offer? Or is this just a forum for plugin contributors to respond and manage? Want to make sure I understand the process correctly as I’m new 🙂

    Thanks!

    If anyone else has this same problem, here’s what I found to solve it!

    .mc4wp-form input[type=”email”]{
    background-color: black !important;
    color: white !important;
    }

    This is to maintain the black background when focused on my input form field, with text staying white.
