styling customer center
How hard is it to style the Customer Center? I have a developer working on my site and the CC doesn't look right. But he says the styling is "coming from the plugin [PilotPress] itself". What can I tell him?

I am considering whether to use Pilotpress Plugin on a new membership site we are creating and am wondering if there's anyway I can see what some of the styling options look like to make sure that it doesn't clash with the site? Can we change page colors, fonts, and widths? And button colors, shapes, flat/beveling, and size?

Hi Byran -
I think the best way to see the capabilities would be to set up a test site on our *.affcntr.com domain in your account. Go to Sites > WordPress and click the "New WordPress Site" button. Select the option for "New WordPress Site - Host a new WordPress site on ONTRAPORT's Servers" and follow the instructions.
You may not be able to install your theme; we use a deprecated version of PHP on those servers that does not allow some of the modern theme functins, etc. But you should be able to navigate to the included Customer Center in Pages and see the styling options first hand. We don't charge for the *.affcntr.com sites.

The customer center uses an HTML Table to present the information, but an HTML Table doesn't display well on the small screen of a smart phone, esp when held in portrait orientation. And many of our customers are clearly using their smart phones to view our website. I just programmed the display of some information for our website that checks the size of the device's screen and only displays the info in tabular format if the size is at least a certain number of pixels wide; otherwise, it displays the info in a more vertical format. This needs to be done with the customer center. Allowing full editing of the customer center CSS could help too.
