CSS Class Reference

The following table lists the major targetable elements on the Hosted Page.  For a refresher on how to find elements to target with CSS, please refer to the section at the end of this article.

Hosted Page Element CSS Class
Giving Form GF-Form
Custom Content HP-CustomContent
Header HP-Header
Footer HP-Footer
Goal Meter goal-meter

There are sub-elements within these elements that allow for more specific customizations, but to list them all out would just be confusing to read.  Again, the bottom section of this article will help you to find and target these sub-elements.

Important Notes

Custom Content and Pasted Text

The Custom Content block uses a WYSWYG (What You See is What You Get) editor, which allows for a wide range of customization.  However, if text is copy-pasted from another source that has styling, e.g. a web page or Microsoft Word document, it will cause an error that prevents the publishing of that page (The message: "Validation failed: html cannot contain <style> tag").

The solution to this differs depending on your OS:

  • MacOS: When pasting, use CMD+Click, then select Paste and Match Style.
  • Windows: When pasting, use Right Click, then select  Paste as plain text.
