[Theme: Codium Extend] Change menu color

Geeze, can’t help if I can’t see your site. I’m not about to download a theme and install it just to answer a simple question.

You can’t see it because i used the Maintenance Mode. Is there a other way to show you the website? Or only to turn off the Maintenance Mode?

Everything you need to change is included in one file, located here: wp-content/themes/codium-extend/style.css

Open it in your favortite text editor, and locate the following comment:

/* Navigation */

It marks the beginning of the menu area styling.
If you want to change the look of the menu bar when you roll over it and want to click on the page you want to go to, you will need to make some changes to the values that are marked :hover.

First, select a color that you’d like on a colorpicker like this one, and copy the value above the colorpicker (e.g. C70837)
You can then make some changes to the color: and background, and see if you like what you’ve done.

For example, I would change the following line:

#access li:hover > a,#access ul ul :hover > a{background:#444;background:rgba(0,0,0,0.7);color:#fff;-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out;-moz-transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out;-o-transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out;-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out;transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out;}

By this:

#access li:hover > a,#access ul ul :hover > a{background:#DAF0E7;background:rgba(0,0,0,0.7);color:#C70837;-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out;-moz-transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out;-o-transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out;-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out;transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out;}

You should be able to experiment from there.

Hello everyone. I’m trying to accomplish something similar in changing my menu color . I have an Echoes theme: https://www.evolvecare.com

I took your advice Jeremy and searched underneath the /* Navigation */
I realize that different themes have different code and this is what it says in the echoes theme:

I’ve changed the color value and refreshed and there is still no changes so I’m wondering if the ability to change the menu color exists somewhere else?

Thanks for all the great advice I really appreciate it.
