What is the best way to edit the Submit button? I did a search here and found one question about this but it was from 2013 and it didn't really address what I need to do. I need to change the text on the Submit button to "Schedule Your Meeting" - but the size of the button is too small. Is there a way to edit the size (and ultimately the color also)?

Hi Eric,
Click on the submit button in the form builder and then click on the properties tab.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

All I see there is to edit the text color and the text that is shown on the button. What I need is to edit the SIZE of the button because the words "Schedule Your Meeting" do not fit in the button that is there now. Also, I do not see any option to change the color of the button, only the color of the text on the button. Is there a way to do that?

Hi Eric,

The thing you are describing is not editable from Webform Builder as it is an image. You can do one of two things. Create a new button using your favorite photo editor and import it into WFB or you can locate and modify the image that WFB is currently using.

That's kind of what I thought. So that means that anytime I make a change to the form, I have to re-upload the custom submit button that I've created. Ok.

You can manually alter the button and upload it to your server replacing the original without opening the form builder.

If your form theme has the + and - symbols in the submit button options, you can add your own button images (regular button plus hover state). These will be saved in your form files so you don't need to redo them if you have to edit/re-insert your form.
