I would like to insert some CSS code on a Wordpress website to override a height value on WP Flow Plus. Looking in Chrome's Inspect Element I can see the HTML for what I want to change:

<div id="wpif2_flowplus_1" class="wpif2_flowplus" style="color: rgb(85, 85, 85); width: 900px; height: 750px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">

I want to change the height to 530px so I am looking for the correct CSS syntax. I have tried

#wpif2_flowplus_1 {
height: 530px;
}

But nothing happens. Changing it in Dev tools works.

Can anyone see anything wrong with the code?

thanks

Hi alleyoopster, The inline

Hi alleyoopster,
The inline styles have a higher specificity so you you should either change the value in the style="" or use !important.

<div id="wpif2_flowplus_1" class="wpif2_flowplus" style="color: rgb(85, 85, 85); width: 900px; height: 530px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">

or
#wpif2_flowplus_1 {
height: 530px !important;
}

SOLVED: Basic Selector question

It just needed to have !important added

#wpif2_flowplus_1 {
height: 530px !important;
}

thanks for your help Big smile
