Ever saved a module in your email editor, dropped it into a different template, and… everything looks different? Fonts changed, colors off, spacing weird.
In Stripo, modules inherit CSS from the template they land in. That's by design. It means when you drop a module into a client's template, it automatically matches their brand styles. No manual tweaking.
But sometimes you don't want that. You've built something with specific colors, fonts, and padding, and you need it to look exactly the same everywhere.
That's where inline styles come in. By saving CSS directly inside the module's HTML, you lock in the look. General Settings won't override it.
For freelancers juggling multiple client brands, this gives you the best of both worlds: • Flexible modules that adapt to any template • Rigid modules that stay pixel-perfect across projects
We broke it all down with examples here:
Curious: do you usually want your modules to adapt or stay locked? How do you handle it?
