[Share] Custom Code - Navigation Link Color/Hover Color/Active Color

On 3/4/2021 at 12:39 AM, els said:

Yes. On every single blogpost. If you scroll down and then hover over the menu you cannot read the submenu now, because it's white on white.

On the rest of the site I used the black minimal theme in the header. Here I cannot do that, for it will make the entire background of the blogposts black. 

I would prefer it if the submenu "box" turns black with white text if you scroll down. Like the rest of the site. 

Would that be possible? 

Hi. Looks fine here?

/* Shrink header */
.shrink {
    background: white !important;
}
.shrink *:not(a.btn) {
    color: black !important;
}
.shrink .header-nav-folder-item a {
    color: white !important;
}

I've been hobbying with the code you gave me before.

/* Shrink header */
.shrink {
    background: white !important;
}
.shrink *:not(a.btn) {
    color: black !important;
}
.shrink .header-nav-folder-item a {
    color: white !important;
}

 

I changed the last white into grey, that gave me the result of your screenshot. I'd prefer to have it black and white though. This is a workaround.

So do you still need help on this?

Yes please, thank you. I set it back to your original code. I would like the menu overlay to be black also in the seperate blog posts. So: white on top, like it is now and when you scroll down that the menu that shows when you hoover over it turns black. With white text on it. Just like on all the other pages. 

This is the code you gave me, which I applied: 

/* Shrink header */
.shrink {
    background: white !important;
}
.shrink *:not(a.btn) {
    color: black !important;
}
.shrink .header-nav-folder-item a {
    color: white !important;
}

If this is too hard to achieve (because the standard menu text in blogposts is black, contrary to the white text on the other pages, maybe it is possible to add an image on top of each blogpost, in the header I mean. I can't see how that could be done either. 

This is amazing. But, how do you do this for the Footer navigation? Would you just change it to Footernavigation in the title?

Thank you.

Would you know how to fix the two buttons in my Pre-Footer for the Memoirs pages only? They work on all other pages, but for the blog post pages, they are hovering with a white and keeping a white text. All other pages, they highlight white, but go to a black text. I am open to changing the style of the button, but do you know how to change this? Thank you!!

Hi. You mean remove donate button underline? Add this to Design > Custom CSS

div#preFooter .button-block a {
    text-decoration: none !important;
}

Hey Tuanphan, I've read through this thread and already used some helpful links. I added the CSS for a custom color when hovering over the navigation menu. And I added the CSS to remove the line underneath the chosen link.

Can you help me with also adding a color when hovering over the shop categories on the left, regardless of which category I am in atm?

Here is the link when in Earrings section:

https://www.soulmaidjewelry.com/shop/earrings

Would there have to be a CSS added for each category or is there a general code?

My "shop" link in the navigation menu brings you to a page with photos which I added as I wanted the landing page to be categories rather than all items showing randomly on one page.

THIS IS AWESOME!!! Thanks so much!!!

Trying to find this in the forums but this page topic is the closest thing I can find. I'm trying to have the nav text weight higher on my index page. Is there a way to adjust the nav text on the index page only?

Thanks for sending this over. I just realized my earlier post was worded a little wonky. I'm looking for a heavy text weight. Keeping this code though because I like the nav text higher up so thanks for this one too!

Hi Tuanphan,

You're amazing! Currently all the pages within the folder that's active have the active colour (which also means when you go back to that folder, other page options loose their hover effect). I was wondering if there's a way to get around the secondary navigation active state? I want the folder + page with active colour but the other pages within folder to go back to inactive colour. Hope that makes sense....

Many thanks for your wisdom!

Can you share link to your site?

Hi @tuanphan we are also working through a similar customization with our current site at the link below. 

We were able to add the code you shared above, but we are also trying to add a bold hover affect. We tried adding font-weight: bold !important; but its not taking. Is there another way to execute this?

Also, we would like to apply the same navigation customizations to the secondary font that is on the landing page at the link above. These are a little more tricky because they are just links instead of actual navigation. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Than you!

Hi,

Your links is Text Block, not Navigation Items, so the code I shared won't work.

You need to use JavaScript to achieve this.

If you use a Business Plan or higher, let me know, I will try testing some code

Hi @tuanphan thank you for letting us know. Yes, we have the business plan. Let me know if I can help answer any other questions. Thank you!

Oh also @tuanphan is it possible to have the link that the person is on bolded after they've clicked it? Let us know. Thank you so much!

Try adding to Settings > Advanced > Code Injection > Footer

<script>
	(function(){

			const currentPage = document.location.pathname;
