Hi,
yourdomain/wp-content/themes/ascent/includes/css/main.css
on line 539
change this:
nav.main-menu ul .current_page_item > a {
background: #1ABC9C none repeat scroll 0% 0%;
color: #FFF;
}
to this:
nav.main-menu ul > li:hover > a, nav.main-menu ul > .current-menu-item > a {
background-color: #d32399;
color: #FFF;
}
and on line 543 change this:
nav.main-menu ul > li:hover > a, nav.main-menu ul > .current-menu-item > a {
background-color: #1ABC9C;
color: #FFF;
}
to this:
nav.main-menu ul .current_page_item > a {
background: #d32399;
color: #FFF;
}
if you choose to edit your theme files, all your changes will be lost if the theme will be updated. You can use a child theme or if you use the wordpress jetpack plugin, it gives you the option to add custom css.
If you will follow the plugin solution, then use this code:
nav.main-menu ul > li:hover > a, nav.main-menu ul > .current-menu-item > a {
background-color: #d32399 !important;
}
nav.main-menu ul .current_page_item > a {
background: #d32399 !important;
}
.
It should work!
Have fun! Greetings from Sunny Greece!!
