As an update to this, I put this to a WordPress developer. He mentioned I should add:

.sub-menu a { color:white; } to the theme css (wp-content/themes/theme1371/style.css)

That worked, except for one link in my menu. My Latest News link under my About Us menu (which is simply a link to my https://www.hopedmonton.ca/events/ page) still showed up in black on any pages or posts generated by The Events Calendar plugin (www.hopedmonton/hope-events/).

My developer friend mentioned that when on the event page the “latest news” is given the “current_page_parent” class.

To remedy this, I changed line 346 of /theme1371/css/normalize.css to read: “ul li.current_page_parent a {color:white;}”

Previously, it was “black”.

Does that all make sense?

Thanks!

So you might want to explore the Codex here and look at filtering excerpts.

I am not completely sure I understand what you mean. Can you explain in simpler terms?

Thanks!

Thanks. I don’t believe I am using a caching or minification plugin. Here’s my plugin list:
Add From Server

Akismet
Audio player
Breadcrumb NavXT
Contact Form 7
EsAudioPlayer
Event Organiser
Google Analytics Dashboard
Google Analytics for WordPress
Hello Dolly
Jetpack by WordPress.com
MP3-jPlayer
Nivo Slider WordPress Plugin
ShareThis
Speedy Page Redirect
SSG WordPress Google Audio Player
The Events Calendar
WP-PageNavi
WPaudio
WP Mobile Detector

Many of these are installed but not acitivated.

The theme I am using is Theme 1371. https://freelancewp.com/wordpress-theme/wordpress-theme-1371/

I have several plug-ins that need updating. Could that have anything to do with it?

Anyone have any ideas?

It’s strange that the style of the menu links are altered only on the Events pages.

I am thinking I should be able to manually specify the style in the code but I am not sure where (in what script) to do that.

Any ideas?

Thanks a bunch!

Is there perhaps a variable in one of the scripts for character length I could alter?

Anyone have any ideas?
