    Hi there!

    I have 2 questions about my buttons in my color section:

    Q1:
    I would like to have the 2 buttons side by side (inline) and centered.

    Q2:
    I would like to have my second button bordered and add hover colors.
    I tried already this for hover:

    #button2 .avia-button:hover {
    background-color: #163147;!important
    color: #ffffff;!important
    }

    But doesn’t show any changes.

    Hope to hear from you soon. website and password are in Private Content section

    Hey KingFilly,

    To center align 2 or more buttons please check the alignment section of the button element.

    To have a custom hover effect please try adding this code to the Quick CSS section under Enfold > General Styling or to your child theme’s style.css file:

    #top .avia-button:hover {
     background-color: #163147;!important
     color: #ffffff;!important     
}

    To target specific button please enable custom CSS class name support.

    Best regards,
    Vinay

    Hi Vinay,

    For aligning the buttons, i tried your suggestion but somehow this doesn’t changes anything.
    I gave the Column where the buttons are in the class name .btn-group and gave both buttons the class name .btn-center.
    I copied the code in Quick CSS and nothing changed.

    About the hover effect: For the aligning i have to name both buttons the same Class name. So how can i make sure the CSS code only affects one button (since i have to use one Class name for both buttons?)

    Hi,

    1. Try to place the buttons inside of 1/2 elements instead and align them accordingly using the options in the element.

    2. You will need a unique class for each button if you want to style them differently, button-2 for instance. You can then target it by using this CSS:

    .button-2 a:hover {
  background-color: red !important; 
}

    Best regards,

    Hi Rikard,

    1. i would like to have the buttons displayed within the color section. But to test if it works what you say i added a 1/2 element underneath the color section with these settings:
    – Equal Height columns set to Equal – center
    – and named it .btn-group

    I added 2 the 2 buttons inside the 1/2 element and gave both buttons the class name: .btn-center (options / custom css class)

    As you can see nothing changed… :( What am i doing wrong?

    2. I already gave a unique class name to the second button (.btn-center) but this affects both buttons so i cant use this class name. How can you dd another class name to a button? I thought this wasn’t possible.

    Or am i doing something wrong adding the class names at “1”

    Hi,

    If you like to try the method @Rikard suggested you don’t need to use CSS. Just align the buttons to right and left inside the 1/2 columns.

    To align buttons in a single column using custom CSS please add the class names in layout builder elements without a “.” in the beginning and it should work for you.

    Best regards,

    Hi Vinay,

    Tjeez what a stupid mistake. haha i just copied the names to the custom CSS id and didn’t removeed the dots. :P
    Spent at least 2 hours finding the problem.

    I only still have that problem with the hover and border color of the 2nd button. I’m already using the same Custom CSS id for 2 buttons.
    If I use this code:

    .btn-center a:hover {
    background-color: red !important;
    }
    both buttons will change. Or can i use 2 different class names for 1 element / button?

    Hope to hear from you.

    apparently i could change the custom id of the second button without breaking anything on the page.
    So i got the hover thing working..

    i also tried to add a border this button, but this doesn’t work:

    .button2 {
    border-color: #163147 !important;
    }

    Hi,
    When adding a border you will need to tell it what type and size, try this code and adjust to suit.

    .button2 {
    border-color: #163147 !important;
    border-style: solid;
    border-width: 1px;
    border-radius: 5px;
}

    Best regards,
    Mike

    thanks Mike, but the border is now larger then the hover color. this looks messy. can’t i just have a border color that surrounds the space just as large as the first button?

    Hi,
    Good point, please try this instead:

    .button2 a.avia-button {
    border-color: #163147 !important;
    border-style: solid;
    border-width: 1px;
    border-radius: 5px;
}

    Best regards,
    Mike
