change the color of the underline from the top menu

Recommended Posts

I wanted to change the color of the underline from the top menu by ussing this custom css:

/* change header nav active style */
.header-nav-item--active a {
  background-image: none !important;
}

/* Change the underline color of the top menu links */
.header-nav-item a {
  position: relative;
  text-decoration: none !important;
  color: #000000; /* Set the color of the link */
}

.header-nav-item a::after {
  content: "";
  position: absolute;
  left: 0;
  bottom: -2px; /* Adjust the positioning of the underline */
  width: 100%;
  height: 2px; /* Adjust the height of the underline */
  background-color: #CE099F; /* Set the color of the underline */
  visibility: hidden;
  opacity: 0;
  transition: opacity 0.4s;
}

.header-nav-item a:hover::after,
.header-nav-item a:focus::after,
.header-nav-item--active a::after {
  visibility: visible;
  opacity: 1;
}

/* Optional: Change the underline color when the link is active or focused */
.header-nav-item--active a::after {
  background-color: #CE099F; /* Set the color of the underline when the link is active */
}
 

it is almost working, but the lenght of the underline doesn't match the text that's on top, but the widht of the box. How can I change it so the underline goes only below the text.

I am including a video of the error to be more clear

@tuanphan great, this worked, thank you so much!!

It is not working on the mobile version, do you know how can I fix that?

I see you solved with this code?

.header-menu-nav-item-content {
    position: relative;
    display: inline-block;
    pointer-events: none;
}

Hi, when I add that code then I see a black line

(the original from the template that I "turn off" by adding: 
/* change header nav active style */
.header-nav-item--active a {
  background-image: none !important;
}

the fuchsia underline is not working on the mobile version, maybe because there is no "hover" but tap on mobile? I don't know

Try this CSS code

div.header-menu-nav-item a::after {
    content: "";
    position: absolute;
    left: 0;
    bottom: -2px;
    width: 100%;
    height: 2px;
    background-color: #ce099f;
    visibility: hidden;
    opacity: 0;
    transition: opacity .4s;
}
div.header-menu-nav-item a:hover::after {
    visibility: visible;
    opacity: 1;
}

Hello I have had another issue with the code.
1. Can you give me an additional code so that when I hover over the project folder it shows the red line on the subcategories?
2. Also my client sent me a screenshot of the site where when he is on one page for example home there is a red line beneath but when he clicks on "projekte" there is another line and when he hovers over a third title there a 3 red lines even though you can't open a page when you are on "projekte". Is it possible to remove that red line from the projects main title because there is no page on the main title
