• Hey everyone,

    I am trying to change the color that appears as you hover over my menu links. The text is white but when hovered over it turns black. Is it possible to change this color? Any help is appreciated; thank you.

  • Hi

    According to the skin color you′ve chosen for instace orange.

    find: wp-content/themes/customizr/inc/css/orange.css

    around line 4065 you′ll find:

    .navbar .nav li.dropdown.open > .dropdown-toggle,
    .navbar .nav li.dropdown.active > .dropdown-toggle,
    .navbar .nav li.dropdown.open.active > .dropdown-toggle {
      background-color: #e5e5e5;
      color: #f78c40;

    play with color:
    I guess that will do the trick.

    Hey stickFinger,

    I am new to coding and websites and have no idea where to even begin to find that directory. Could you break it down. If I can find it I will know what to do then. Thank you.

    Hi citi11411

    Dou you hava access through ftp?
    That file resides on customizr directory. All wp themes are stored on your wp-content/themes directory so….try to find the path:

    wp-content/themes/customizr/inc/css/orange.css

    better now? ??

    @citi11411: You shouldn’t be modifying the theme’s stylesheets (that is, don’t modify orange.css as suggested above), as any changes will be lost when you upgrade.

    You should create a child theme (don’t worry, it’s very easy; instructions here) and paste the following into your new style.css:

    .navbar .nav > li > a:focus,
    .navbar .nav > li > a:hover {
        color: #F67D28;
    }

    Change #F67D28 to a color of your choice (choose colours here).

    Good luck ??

    hi ElectricFeet

    (that is, don’t modify orange.css as suggested above)

    Actually i did not suggested nothing. I only tried to show the way …
    and if i′m not wrong there is a place to insert custom css via customizr panel, isn′t it?

    Trouble is that people who are new to websites may not even be able to find orange.css.

    Yes, there is a Custom CSS panel, but it won’t work in this case, as there are “>” characters in there.
