    Hi there,

    I am trying to change the lower menu on the Edin theme. Right now I have it at the Third Widget spot. I would like to change the color of the menu text from the bright blue to one of our companies colors. I can get it with css but when I change this color it changes the color of all of the links.

    I would like the “Read More” to stay the bright blue so that links on the blog pages and what not remain that color but I would like to change the color of the menu.

    Thanks for any help in advance.

  • Hi there,

    You could target the links in the menu (and leave all other links the way they are) with .widget_nav_menu a: 

    .widget_nav_menu a {
    color: #663399;
}

    The value of #663399 in the above snippet can be changed to the colour code of your choice.

    In case you’re not aware: Please do not edit your theme’s files directly. Any changes you make there will be lost when it comes time to update.

    Instead, to add custom CSS, firstly set up a child theme or activate a custom CSS plugin. (If you have Jetpack installed then you can activate its custom CSS module.)

    Hope that’s helpful! We’re right here if any extra questions come up, too.

    Hello,

    Can you please share a direct link to your site so that I can help you regarding that?

    Looking forward for your reply.

    Thank you.

    Thank you Siobhan! That worked:

    .widget_nav_menu a {
    color: #cc9933;
    }

    I had looked through a lot of the Edin support forum so I’ve been editing all of the CSS using the Jetpack plugin. Thank you for your help.

    Perfect! We’re right here if anything else comes up, too. ??
