Changing hover effect on individual images on grid

Go to solution Solved by paul2009,

Recommended Posts

I currently have a grid of thumbnail images on the home page of website that links to other pages. (this is a graphic design portfolio website)
I have a color overlay hover effect on the images, so when you hover over the image it turns the image a solid blue shade. 
I would like to change this so each image has a different hover color instead of just one color.

Would anyone be able to tell how I can achieve this effect? I've attached a quick example of the effect I'm trying to achieve if that helps.

Thank you!

It's possible to do this by specifying different colours for the different elements by using nth selector like nth-of-type or nth-child. If you need more specific help, you'll to allow us to view the page.

Here's an example for the first two items on the page. Add this to Design > Custom CSS and add further entries for each grid item:

/* Change Grid Item Hover Colors */
.portfolio-grid-overlay .grid-item:nth-of-type(1) .portfolio-overlay {
  background-color: #5FBB8D; /* green */
}
.portfolio-grid-overlay .grid-item:nth-of-type(2) .portfolio-overlay {
  background-color: #649EF7; /* blue */
}
