    hello im trying to style the ‘browse button’ here: http://50.87.249.71/~cherryl9/test/?product=birch-plywood
    I basically want it similar to the upload to cart button below.
    I realize that is not possible in CSS and need a JQuery script somehow, right? How can I do it?
    Thanks

    Hi Matt,

    Changing the file upload button is a bit of an in-depth change but kindly try to follow the suggestions here: http://tympanus.net/codrops/2015/09/15/styling-customizing-file-inputs-smart-way/

    Hope this helps.

    Hi, thanks I’m looking it into right now, but where shall I add the code

    <input type=”file” name=”file” id=”file” class=”inputfile” />
    <label for=”file”>Choose a file</label>

    as reported on that article? I tried adding it in my style sheet that I am editing with the CSS Stylesheet editor, but nothing changed.
    Thanks!

    just a follow up to clarify- what I’m trying to do is to style the ‘choose file’ into the accordion titled “request a quote now” in this page: http://50.87.249.71/~cherryl9/test/ . if you click on the accordion, at the end of the menu, you’ll find the ‘choose file’ button. I want it to be similar and next to the ‘send’ button. This is a form I generated with form7.
    Is it possible to style that button?
    Thanks!

    Hi Mat,

    Thanks for writing back!

    As mentioned, this is quite a bit tricky converting a normal upload button into a styled one. However, following the article, you should be able to achieve your desired results. As this is a custom development, that is outside the scope of support we can provide, I could point you in the right direction with the understanding that it would ultimately be your responsibility to take it from here.

    This code:

    <input type="file" name="file" id="file" class="inputfile" />
    <label for="file">Choose a file</label>
    

    Needs to go in between your Contact Form 7 fields. The first line of the code needs to be replaced with CF7 generated input field (see: http://prntscr.com/axhmm5). So the updated code will look like this:

    [file my-file id:my-file class:inputfile]
    <label for="file">Choose a file</label>
    

    Hope this helps. 🙂

    Thank you!
