===============================================================================
NOBLE CHAUFFEURS — APPROVED REUSABLE SECTION CSS — V2
===============================================================================

PURPOSE
-------
Paste this file into:
Appearance > Customise > Additional CSS
or your theme/child-theme stylesheet.

The rules are intentionally scoped to classes beginning with "nc-".
They do not reset the complete WordPress theme and should not restyle unrelated
Elementor widgets, menus, posts, headers or footers.

FONT REQUIREMENT
----------------
Load Taviraj for headings and Mulish for body text through the theme or Elementor.
The CSS includes safe fallback fonts but does not import external font files.

FAST CUSTOMISATION
------------------
Edit the variables inside :root first. They control:
- Brand colours
- Section spacing
- Content width
- Card radius
- Shadows
- Grid gaps
- Transition speed

BACKGROUND IMAGES
-----------------
For NC-FORM-04, NC-CTA-02-D and NC-CTA-03-L, set the image in HTML:

style="--nc-bg-image: url('https://example.com/image.webp');"

FORM INTEGRATION
----------------
Assign the right-side Elementor form container the class .nc-form-slot.
The container remains dark on both light and dark sections so Fluent Forms stays readable.
Place the Fluent Forms Shortcode widget inside this container.

CLASS POLICY
------------
Do not rename nc- classes on individual pages. Edit this shared CSS instead.

/*
===============================================================================
NOBLE CHAUFFEURS — APPROVED REUSABLE SECTION CSS
===============================================================================

PURPOSE
-------
Paste this file into:
Appearance > Customise > Additional CSS
or your theme/child-theme stylesheet.

The rules are intentionally scoped to classes beginning with "nc-".
They do not reset the complete WordPress theme and should not restyle unrelated
Elementor widgets, menus, posts, headers or footers.

FONT REQUIREMENT
----------------
Load Taviraj for headings and Mulish for body text through the theme or Elementor.
The CSS includes safe fallback fonts but does not import external font files.

FAST CUSTOMISATION
------------------
Edit the variables inside :root first. They control:
- Brand colours
- Section spacing
- Content width
- Card radius
- Shadows
- Grid gaps
- Transition speed

BACKGROUND IMAGES
-----------------
For NC-FORM-04, NC-CTA-02-D and NC-CTA-03-L, set the image in HTML:

style="--nc-bg-image: url('https://example.com/image.webp');"

FORM INTEGRATION
----------------
The CSS styles .nc-form-slot as a development placeholder only.
In Elementor, place a Fluent Forms Shortcode widget in the right-side container.
Remove the visual placeholder after the real form is added.

CLASS POLICY
------------
Do not rename nc- classes on individual pages. Edit this shared CSS instead.
