Change Dropdown Menu

Recommended Posts

Hi!  I would like to change how my dropdown menu appears.  Specifically: size of text, background color, and spacing between words.  Currently, the words are too spaced out.

I was also wondering if I could make the menu appear in a horizontal line instead of a vertical dropdown.

Oh right, you're wanting to change the hamburger navigation, we can do that.

// link spacing
.header-menu-nav-folder-content .container a {
    margin-top: 2vw;
}
// navigation link size
.header-menu-nav-item a {
    font-size: 18px;
}

The navigation background is already set in Custom CSS, it looks like this, remove it or change it:

.header-menu .header-menu-bg {
    background-image: url(https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5f90ad1…/t/63615a5…/1667324505454/qwefw.jpg);
    background-size: cover;
}

Alright.  I think I got the formatting to my liking on a dummy site.  See attached.  The only problem now is the menu is far too wide/large.  Also, the "X" to close the menu is no longer visible since I made the background white.  Thank you for your help!

To change menu width, you can use this CSS code

@media screen and (min-width:768px) {
.header-menu {
    max-width: 400px !important;
}
}

To change X color, can you share link to page in screenshot? The color is fine on main page
