I changed the top nav menu on my blog page to have a custom background colour and font colour, but for some reason there's this white padding around the drop down folder. Is there a way to make this padding dark grey as well?

Here's my site: https://sapphire-grouse-xtsp.squarespace.com/

This is the code I've used:

body[class*="collection-type-blog"].view-item header#header {
    background-color: #636466 !important;
}

body[class*="collection-type-blog"] header#header a {
    color: #fff !important;
}

body[class*="collection-type-blog"] header#header div.header-nav-folder-content a {
    background-color: #636466
      !important;
}

body[class*="collection-type-blog"] header#header div.nav-folder a {
    background-color: #636466
      !important;
}

body[class*="collection-type-blog"] header#header div.header-nav-folder-content a {
      color: #ffffff !important;
}

Having an issue where my navigation menu background color is still from the old orange theme the original creators chose, and I cannot seem to make it black for the life of me.

Your template needs a different class name

.horizontal-navigation-bar nav.main-nav .folder .subnav ul {
    background-color: #000 !important;
}

Any way to fix this so that the underline that shows up when you hover over the text underlines the text only, not the whole line?

Thanks in advance!

I'm trying to create a hover state where navigation menu options change to light blue on hover. The issue with the current code I tried is that it if I'm hovering on any option under the folder "Case Studies", it turns them all blue at once. Is there a way to just isolate the option in the dropdown menu so that only the option that is hovered over shows?  (Then "About" and "Say Hi" would also turn light blue when hovered?) Thank you!

Thank you! It's www.rachelstevensportfolio.com

To be more clear, I'm trying to figure out how to change the dropdown menu items to a darker blue on hover. 

I'm also wondering if it's possible to change the links in the footer to a lighter blue on hover?

@tuanphan  I am having issues with having two background colors. I have messed with code and utilized code from this thread and it's doing what I want on one page, but I cannot get rid of the teal that is showing up on the dropdown of other pages. I have no idea why or how it is there and cannot seem to get rid of it. It doesn't seem to be tied to a theme because it stays no matter what theme I change to. Any ideas why/how to get rid of it?? Just to be clear, the screenshot with just a grey background is correct. The teal AND grey is not correct.

Change this code in CSS box

.header-nav-item--active a {
    background-image: linear-gradient(#19a09a,#19a09a) !important;
}

to this

.header-nav-item--active>a {
    background-image: linear-gradient(#19a09a,#19a09a) !important;
}

Hello, I am now using your code for transparent drop-down menu which has worked beautifully thank you!

Just wondering if there is an add on to change the background colour for hover over the linked pages?

You mean background color or whole Dropdown, or dropdown item or both nav item + dropdown item?
