Format error messages zem_contact_reborn

I’m using zem_contact_reborn on quite a few sites and have the problem of formatting the error messages. I can format the fieldset, the legend, the submit button and all the other important parts using i.e.
.zemContactForm .zemSubmit or .zemContactForm legend

I tried to give the error messages and the thank you messages some formatting with
.zemContactForm .zemThanks or .zemContactForm .zemError ul li
but both do not give me any result. What am I doing wrong?

Than ks for your help (again).

The unordered error list got class .zemError, so use it.

Just in case that was confusing Jukka means ul.zemError and ul.zemError li which is slightly different to what you show in your post. :)

Re: Format error messages zem_contact_reborn

Thanks for those replies, but I’m still struggling to adjust the error messages. I have used/tried the following:
.zemContactForm ul.zemError li
.zemContactForm ul.zemError ul
ul.zemError li
ul.zemError

All of the above do not affect the error messages.
I must still do something wrong?

That should work. If you have a div id="contact" or something like that around your contact form, you can try to add that:

#contact ul.zemError

#contact ul.zemError li

But first try to change the order, first ul.zemError and then ul.zemError li.

Re: Format error messages zem_contact_reborn

Thanks Els,

Changing the order did the trick. I have done it various times correct before, but must have been on a different planet this time.

Thanks again.
