Hi, Angus

I think I’ve discovered the issue, but no solution.
This plugin doesn’t play nicely with the Divi theme, it seems.

I’ve been slowly updating my site themes to Divi – and I now believe this is where the clash is happening.
> For example, I can change the colours and styling of the form elements in the MD panel – but they are not being applied properly.

And adding any other plugin, like one for GDPR compliance, makes things even worse.
While the GDPR plugin I use works just fine with plain Contact 7 forms and Divi, once the Material Design plugin is active the styling/CSS goes awry.
> For example, inserting a line of text in the form… instead of a standard format paragraph, the text is now squeezed into multiple tall, thin columns.

In short: the plugin doesn’t work out of the box with Divi or a few other plugins.

I’m not a developer, and I only dabble with basic CSS form styling: so it may be something obvious to fix, but I can’t seem to do it in the MD plugin itself – and ease-of-use/quick roll-out styling application was why I purchased this plugin.
> For now I’m removing the plugin and using basic CSS styling on Contact 7 I’ve created myself. As while it’s not as ‘pretty’, at least the form isn’t broken.

I can’t see a simple cheat-sheet/CSS reference for the various MD form elements – if there is one (sorry if I missed the obvious) I will try having a go at overriding Divi settings myself at some point.
