Hi, 
Is it possible to add a drop shadow to specific text? 
I am trying to create navigation buttons out of images on my home page,so have added the images and am trying to pop text over the top, however the text is white and doesn't stand out. I have found code i can add into Custom CCS that adds a drop shadown on everything but this looks very odd. So can you do it individually for the text you need? Also when i hyperlink the text it puts an underline under it and i don't want one, is it possible to remove it? 
Thank you for your help,

Your site is private, so I can take a look and give you exact CSS to do this, but yes you can add a drop shadow to the text and remove the underline. You need to figure out what tag/class that it belongs to. If you change the site to password protected and provide it, I can give you fully working code.

.textClassYouWantChanged {
	/* Adds Shadow */
	text-shadow:2px 2px gray;

	/* Removes Underline */
	text-decoration:none;
}

Hi Chris, 

Thank you so much for your help.

If i change it to password protected though does that mean you would be able to access the back end of the site? I am just not sure about allowing access. 

Is there anyway of helping without this? 

I am sorry to ask. 

What i need to do is to make these three peaces of text have a drop shadow and not be underlines. How do i do this? Where would i add the code and what would the code be?

There are on my home page

Thank you so much for your help, 

Kind regards

Add to Home > Design > Custom CSS. You can change red to another color

.header-nav-item a {
    background-image: none !important;
    text-shadow: 2px 3px 4px red;
}
