Replace the menu blocks with black text

Thank you also Robert for sharing your thoughts and great brilliant ideas.

Sorry to be a bugger..
but just one (well, two) more questions re: menu color/change..

(1) is there a way to have the current page I’m on stay the pink hover color while I’m on that page?

and (2) (this is going to sounds super crazy).. is there a way to not have the little dotted box outline pop up when I click on that menu item? (super ocd, I’m so to ask, but really curious!)..

and please excuse all the pink..
thank you!

Mishan,

Sorry that it has taken me so long to get back to you, I’ve been a bit busy today.

1. In your child theme css find:

#nav .menu > ul > .current_menu_item > a,
#nav .menu > ul > .current_page_item > a,
#nav .menu > ul > .current_menu_item > a:hover,
#nav .menu > ul > .current_page_item > a:hover,
#nav .menu > ul > .current_menu_item > a:focus,
#nav .menu > ul > .current_page_item > a:focus,
#nav .menu > ul > .current_page_ancestor > a {
    background-color: transparent;
    background-image: none;
}

and add:

color: #f96eec;

after the “background-image: none;” property

2. Adding the following to your child theme’s CSS will take care of the outline:

a {
   outline: 0;
}

More information on that can be found here: CSS Tricks – Removing the Dotted Outline

I hope that helps!

Robert, you’ve been a blessing.
Yes, both of those worked perfectly.
THANK YOU SOOO much!

Hi Robert,

I thought I’d try to reach you here because I was wondering if you also use the Blaskan theme, and if so, I was curious if you had experienced any changes to the pages formatting.

I had opted out of using the sidebar on my pages only, but today saw that all my pages are now formatted as IF the sidebar is there (even though it doesn’t show), but I can’t seem to figure out how to make my pages full-width again..

Would you have any suggestions?

Thank you if you’re out there!
