where to format checkboxes on Reg form?

Without a little work the check boxes on the Registration form are a mess. Please see the attached screenshot

Where can I insert a bit of HTML, like maybe a table and cells to organize them? I can't find the file, so the full path - not just the file name - would be greatly appreciated.

This is my first s2Member installation and I am amazed at how well it is done - especially the tutorials. I am one who constantly moans that programmers should never be allowed to write instructions or manuals because they know and assume to much - but Jason, you are a rare exception. After this project is finished I will be back here to buy a Pro license and I have some great expectations for selling sites that need this plugin.

Hi Joe ,

By default they all should list vertically,

It may be your blog theme style.css file overriding the formatting for the check boxes ,

At a glance the text labels for each option are very small compared to the normal text so it maybe that.

For the formatting for each check box which will change the look ,
see here

1) General Options
2) Custom Registration Fields
3) Edit the filed in question to the far right by clicking on the the pencil
4) CSS Classes: ( optional ) put in the css name you want eg: my_format
5) CSS Styles: ( optional ) eg: display: block;

but remember the theme style.css may override this

You could test my theory by changing the blog template to the default wordpress one quickly and having a look at the registration page to see of they all align up and then changing it back to your theme

if so you may see a line in the file like this

.checkbox {

}

or

#checkbox {

}
But bear in mind this will change every check box on the blog if you change this

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll try them when I return this evening. Right now I'mn trying to get stuff done that will allow me to see the last day of WordPressCampNYC.
