RentFetch CSS styling and theming

Last updated: January 30, 2026

Overview

Rent Fetch provides CSS custom properties (variables) that control the appearance of property listings and UI elements. You can override these variables to match your site’s design across the board, rather than going through and styling each particular element.

Info

We try to keep our selectors as non-specific as we can so that things are easy to override while still creating functional layouts that should work in most themes without any adjustment.

Overriding Variables

Override variables in your theme’s stylesheet:

:root {
     --rentfetch-accent: #ff6b6b;
     --rentfetch-accent-active: #ff5252;
     --rentfetch-font-size-medium: 18px;
}

Or target specific contexts:

.custom-property-section {
     --rentfetch-accent: #2ecc71;
     --rentfetch-base: #fafafa;
}
