Did you know that Riddle’s quiz maker has a powerful CSS quiz editor? You can customize every visual aspect of your Riddle quiz, list, or poll to match your website’s look and feel.
Yup – from button styling to text, colors to borders, you have control over nearly every element of a Riddle – and you don’t have to be a code guru to do it.
Each time you create a quiz, it will feel completely organic to your site – not a 3rd party widget. See how Choice Hotels used our CSS quiz editor for their ‘Where should you go on vacation?’ quiz:

AFTER: Choice Hotels quiz – with CSS editor
What can you customize with our CSS quiz editor?
For customers on our Team plan, our CSS quiz editor now gives full control over almost every aspect of your Riddle.
This is just the tiniest tip of the iceberg:
- Bullets
- Buttons – round or square?
- Fonts
- Colors of any element
- Background – use colors or background images
CSS quiz editor – live quiz examples
Our CSS quiz editor is part of our Team plan – along with multi-user accounts, uploading your own fonts, and loads more.

Getting started with our CSS quiz editor
Let’s take a look on how to get started with our CSS quiz exditor:
- Go to the ‘Customize’ step > ‘Style’ tab.
- Scroll down to CSS quiz editor.
- Paste in the new CSS code for any elements you’d like to customize.
To modify the CSS code, you can change the CSS property of each part of the Riddle by first investigating the property name and then adding a new CSS property for the respective class.
To investigate the property names, we suggest to use Google Chrome’s developer tools:
- Click on ‘inspect’ then find the element name – typically in this format: h1.title.ng-binding (in this case for the title text)
- To change the parameter, just copy this tag along with the specific color or other characteristic.
In the example below, we made the following CSS changes to remove the frame border, change the buttons and more.
.riddle-frame {
letter-spacing: .4px;
border-radius: 0px;
border: 0px!important;
}
.riddle-frame .content-div .footer-content .start-btn {
width: 70%;
padding: 0px;
border-radius: 2px;
padding: 15px 0;
}
.riddle-frame .share-result .btn {
background-color: #07265D !important;
border-radius: 1px;
