    As above - the form works well on tablet and properly on PC, but is too narrow to use on mobile, everything is crammed together.

    I have tried various CSS scripts that I have found here but I guess they need to be written specifically for the form to which they are being applied, as none of them have helped (I will learn CSS when I get some time, not this week though!)

    Does anyone have a solution?

    The fields all relate to the same entry, so ideally they need to be kept together - maybe 2 lines for each entry would be OK for mobile.

    Thanks. :)

    For further information - I have tried redoing the form at 320 px wide and the Configurable List widget gets scrambled. I need to use that particular widget as there doesn't seem to be another way to do what I require - I have a thread about it somewhere here.

    Thanks again.

    Hi modelcompentries,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. To resolve the issue, add the existing CSS code from the widget inside this CSS code:

    @media (min-width: 768px){
    Existing code is here
    }

    Here are the steps for adding CSS code to the Configurable List widget and the whole CSS code:

    1. First, copy this code:
    /* adjust CL fields width */
    @media (min-width: 768px){
    .configurable-list-field-row {
    display: grid !important;
    grid-template-columns: 11% 28% 11% 22% 28%
    /* adjust width as needed */
    }
    .configurable-list-field-wrapper {
    max-width: none !important;
    }}
    /* Ends here */

    2. Open your form in Form Builder, scroll down, and select the Configurable List widget.

    3. Click on the Wand icon on the right side of the widget to open Widget Settings.

    4 . Under the Custom CSS tab, paste the code into the CSS Code box and click Update.
