Not exactly sure what the code would be but just a line or two of opacity rules for the "form background" should do the trick. </p> <p>It's Friday so you may not get a response from Yuniar or other staff until Monday, but I bet he knows the answer. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/transparent-forms#post-22489 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 06:47:47 +0000 karenf 22489@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>I appreciate your comments. Thanks so much. I'll see what I can do! </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/transparent-forms#post-22488 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 05:15:48 +0000 williamansley 22488@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>@karenf: The effect you are referring to is called lightbox and it is done with javascript. The form that is displayed has no connection to the lightbox effect, you should be able to display any web content that way, including forms created with Machform. You will need to get javascript libraries for some version of lightbox. It is free, open source code that comes in a few different varieties. If you have a web developer working with you or that you can consult, she can help you with this. If you do all your website support yourself, you can try to figure this out yourself or ask for help. Unfortunately, I can't provide any guidance beyond what I've already said. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/transparent-forms#post-22487 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 03:09:04 +0000 karenf 22487@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Please take a look at this site: <a href="http://www.emilylondonportraits.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.emilylondonportraits.com</a></p> <p>Click on Book a Shoot, then the pink button "Design my Portrait Session"</p> <p>You'll see that the form basically sits on top of the page where the button is, with a transparent background.</p> <p>Thanks! </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/transparent-forms#post-22484 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 00:47:02 +0000 Saghalie 22484@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Is this what you mean by transparency? <a href="http://www.kcmhosting.com/contact.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.kcmhosting.com/contact.htm</a></p> <p>I'm not sure what you need, sorry.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Saghalie<br /> <a href="http://www.kcmhosting.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.kcmhosting.com</a> </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/transparent-forms#post-22483 Thu, 08 Jan 2015 21:58:36 +0000 karenf 22483@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Hi! I have search this topic and still haven't been able to make this work. I would like my forms to be transparent or translucent (except the text boxes), to show the page somewhat underneath. Is that even possible?</p> <p>I tried selecting the box in the background section with the red line through it, but didn't change anything even on the template. The color number remains.</p> <p>Also, typically I just send a client a link to a form. Do I need to embed the form on a wordpress page to get this transparency to work?</p> <p>Thanks!<br /> karenf </p>
