That’s perfect, thanks so much!

I found the solution to my needs by using a hide posts plugin and selected “hide from front page” for the posts I didn’t want to show there.

PS: It’s the text-area field that’s the problem, the others are ok. I know you can drag it out to make it bigger, but most people won’t realize that and I’ll get lots of emails asking for help.

Aha, realized plugins have their own css, found grunion.css and made the changes!

Hi, I’m using WP 3.5.1 and Jetpack 2.2.1. Just want to customize the size of the textarea for the contact form comments field. Tried [contact-field label='Comment' type='textarea' rows='4' cols='50' required='1'/] but that didn’t work. Tried activating custom CSS and inserting Alfred’s code as above but it wouldn’t save:
.contact-form textarea {
height: 200px;
width: 80%;
float: none;
margin-bottom: 13px;
}
I’m only a semi-competent amateur with coding, and don’t know what else to try! Can anyone help?

Problem now fixed. I used Doifro’s solution, I think there was also a goto_leave_text in wp_customer_reviews.php which needed to be changed. Anyway, whatever I did, the problem is fixed – thanks for the help ??

Doifro, thanks very much for your helpful reply. I tried what you suggested but still the title on the review form remains as ‘Submit your review’, and will not change whatever I do. Only the button text changes.

I even deleted the plugin files and reinstalled it from the original zip file, but even so, it seemed to remember my previous settings, so is it interacting with WordPress in some permanent way that I need to find out?

PS, just thought I’d mention I have already made the necessary change in the plugin settings. Changes to the button text are working fine, but not the change to the review form heading.

I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. I want to change the title on the review form ‘Submit your review’ to ‘Create a testimonial’. I changed the line in wp-customer-reviews.php and re-uploaded the file but the original wording still shows on my site. Is anyone else getting this? Tried clearing the browser cache but that didn’t help.

I have the same problem, like you I am the admin.
I have just installed WordPress 2.7.1. using the 5-minute install. All was completed perfectly. Then I tried to change the settings in options-general.php but when trying to save them all I get is an error message “Forbidden: You do not have permission to access this document.”
I don’t know anything about phpMyAdmin although I can access it (v. 2.8.2.4) from my host’s Plesk control panel, but I can’t see anything about adjusting permissions.
Am completely stumped. Is it something to do with CHMOD file permissions? If so, I couldn’t see anything about this in the setup instructions.
