# No submit button

 * I just installed the SendPress plugin and the widget is not showing a “submit”
   button on my blog homepage. If you hit “enter” it seems to submit the information,
   but I’d like to have the actual button. Any idea what’s causing this?

 * Try going to the advanced tab in sendpress and disabling the CSS. There’s also
   a short code option on the help tab and if all else fails the subscribers tab
   has a form button. The short code and form can both be used with a text widget.
 * Depending on the theme one of those will end up working. If not, let us know 
   and we can investigate a bit more.

 * Disabling CSS didn’t work. Instead of a submit button, I got a spinning loading
   wheel, or whatever you want to call it.
 * I tried all of the text widgets both with CSS on and off.
 * I tried the [sp-signup] shortcode, and it gave me a signup form with just an 
   email, the no list error, and the spinning wheel.
 * I tried the shortcode with first name, last name, etc. and it gave me a signup
   form with the no list error, email entry box, and the spinning wheel.
 * I tried the html from the form button, and it gave me the correct signup form
   but still no submit button (that’s how it is on the site currently if you want
   to check it).
 * Any thoughts?

 * I will ask one of the developers to take a look. It’s probably something with
   your theme or CSS, but that’s not my area of expertise. When I inspect element
   on your site, I can see the submit button in the code, it’s just not visible.
 * I am curious about the short code. Could you perhaps include the code that you
   tried? If it said no list was selected, there was probably a list ID missing 
   from the short code.

 * It looks like your theme CSS is hiding the widgets submit button. It’s the layout.
   css file:line 1017 thats setting the #submit to display:none.
 * If you have a way to add custom css to your site, you can override your theme
   css with the following code, and the button should appear.
 * `#submit.sendpress-submit{display:block !important;}`

 * If I understand you correctly, I need to edit my layout.css file and add that
   code, right? I’m pretty novice with this stuff, but can usually figure it out…
   I just don’t show a layout.css file in the appearance editor. Is there any other
   way around it?
 * To answer your question itdoug, this is the shortcode I pulled from the help 
   section of the plug-in:
 * [sp-signup firstname_label=’First Name’ lastname_label=’Last Name’ email_label
   =’EMail’ list_label=’List Selection’ listids=” redirect_page=” lists_checked=’
   1′ display_firstname=” display_lastname=” label_display=” desc=” label_width=’
   100′ thank_you=’Thank you for subscribing!’ button_text=’Submit’ no_list_error
   =’– NO LIST HAS BEEN SET! –‘ postnotification=” pnlistid=’0’ ]
 * I just added that into a text widget, and got the aforementioned result. I’m 
   assuming I did that correctly, but it’s possible I didn’t.

 * Adding that code to any of your sites CSS files should work for you.
 * As for the widget, you just need to set the listids parameter to the list or 
   lists you want to give users the option to subscribe to. You can also use the
   SendPress Signup Widget to make setting up the options a little easier.

 * Glad we could get the button back. I added the CSS to our next release so this
   should never happen again.

 * Boboglas, I think the next release will fix. It should be out either tonight 
   or sometime tomorrow if all goes well with testing. If it does not resolve your
   problem, let us know here in the forums and we will investigate further.
