The ADD rss feed url button doesn't click so I can't add any feeds!

Looks great, but doesn't work. The styling/functionality of adding a new feed is broken. That's game-over.

Layout looks broken on Chrome 68.0.3440.106 and adding new feed just shows textbox without buttons. Enter does nothing there.
