Customising Comment form and button

We're using BlugsMU for one of our networks. I'm wondering where to find the place to customise the comment form and "submit comment" button to match the rest of the site?

Many thanks!

Hi Nissa,

As with most themes, customization of the comment form would be done purely with CSS styles. The best way to do this, if you haven't already, would be to create a child theme, then customize the child theme's style.css file. Here's a great resource to help explain that.

Fortunately, BlogsMU comes with a child theme in the /blogs-mu/themes/blogs-mu-child/ folder that you can copy over to your /wp-content/themes/ folder and customize from there.

You can, as an example, use the following in your child theme's style.css to more closely match the comment form to the rest of your site.
```
#comment-form {
background: #0d6e9e;
}
```
```
#comment-form .sbutton {
background: #cc9900;
}
```
Hope this helps!
