How can I make the newsletter border constantly visible in Prestige theme footer?

Topic summary

Issue: In the Prestige theme footer, the newsletter input’s black border was only visible on hover; the goal was to make it visible at all times.

Context: Screenshots illustrated the hover vs. non-hover states. Multiple responders requested the store URL; the owner shared southclothing.store.

Proposed fixes:

  • Add CSS in theme.css to force a border: .Footer__Content + .Footer__Newsletter .Form__Input { border: 1px solid #000; } (initially placed at bottom) — reported not working.
  • Retry the same selector at the top of theme.css with !important: .Footer__Content + .Footer__Newsletter .Form__Input { border: 1px solid #000 !important; } — suggested as a stronger override.
  • Alternative CSS targeting the footer newsletter: #footer-newsletter input.Form__Input { border-color: var(–button-background); } — reported not working.

Outcome: The original poster confirmed that a solution worked, thanking the contributors. The specific snippet that resolved the issue was not explicitly identified.

Status: Resolved, no further action items noted. Attachments (images) were helpful to understand the visual problem.

Hey,

As you can see on image first image it shows the newsletter black boarder.

On the second image you can not see the boarder.

For some reason you can only see the boarder when on hover, I would like the black boxed boarder to be visible the whole time.

Can someone help
