Does anyone know how to create a built-in scrolling feature for the Form Block?

Recommended Posts

I am attempting to add a Terms and Conditions section to a Form Block, but rather than place all of the text on the page, which pushes everything else down and makes the page look bad - I would rather have the text scroll within the box. Similar to the attached example from another website.

I believe I would need custom code. Has anyone done this before on their site?

Can you direct us to the form on your site with the lengthy terms?

As you've added the terms to the description of a checkbox field with the ID

checkbox-yui_3_17_2_1_1564155602604_190745

you can restyle the terms with the following CSS (add to Design > Custom CSS):


#checkbox-yui_3_17_2_1_1564155602604_190745 .description
{
 border: 1px solid #ccc;
 height: 100px;
 overflow: hidden;
 overflow-y: scroll;
 padding: 4px;
}
#checkbox-yui_3_17_2_1_1564155602604_190745 .description::-webkit-scrollbar {
 -webkit-appearance: none;
 width: 7px;
 }
#checkbox-yui_3_17_2_1_1564155602604_190745 .description::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb {
 border-radius: 4px;
 background-color: rgba(0,0,0,.5);
 -webkit-box-shadow: 0 0 1px rgba(255,255,255,.5);
 }

alt text

Let me know how you get on.
