Dear Madam or Sir,

For a search view (text search field), I changed some style settings in the block editor (see image). However, they have absolutely no effect when reloading the respective front end page. For example, the text search field does not appear with a dashed border as spedified in the block editpr. It seems that the theme overwrites the changes. How can I avoid this?

Thanks in advanve.
Robert

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Can you please share problem URL on what page you added the view as well as admin access details.

*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.

I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.

When I checked the border issue with my test site where only Toolset plugins installed with default theme. I can see its working as expected.

It seems there is plugin or theme CSS conflict due to that border is not applied on textbox.

The workaround is - I've added the following CSS code to your view's custom CSS box:

div#wpv_post_search input {
   border-style: dashed;
border-width:medium;
}

And also added the wpv_post_search as ID within the Advanced section of text filter input. I can see its working as expected:
=> hidden link
