Change color of navigation bar's text

Hey there jillpan,

This should be possible with some custom CSS, please try adding the following CSS code in the style.css file of your child theme or if your theme doesn’t have custom CSS tab add it in your site using the following plugin:

https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/simple-custom-css

#site-navigation.main-navigation a {
    color: #fff;
}

This should change your menu links to white ??

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the response! It changed the navigation’s text to white, however as you can see on the site: https://bloomingdresses.com/ the drop-down menu’s text is also white which makes the drop-down menu unreadable. Is there a way to make the main navigation bar’s text white and the drop-down menu text black?

Thanks

Also, if it’s not possible to have different colors of text for the navigation bar’s text and the drop-down menu text, then is it possible to change the drop-down menu’s background color to be a color other than white (which is the default color)?

Hey there jillpan,

Sorry about that, wasn’t aware of submenu background being white, yes we can use CSS to target only links in the top level menu and not the dropdown links.

Please try using this instead:

#site-navigation.main-navigation #menu-navigation-bar > li > a {
    color: #fff;
}

This should be the result https://screencast.com/t/fFEGZTItQ.
