Changing the rollover color on navigation

[dagreat8 1]

Hello, I need help changing the rollover color on my pagelines theme. I am not familiar with css. I figured there would be an easy way to customize the rollover since all the other color options seem to be available. Please help. Thank you.

Fred, You can go into wordpress admin > PlatformPro > Custom Code and enter this in the CSS field .main_nav ul li:hover {background:red; color:white;}

Awesome, thank you. I applied it and it helped it some areas but overall it's acting weird...I can't really explain it. This is the code I added: .main_nav ul li:hover {background:#0f4357; color:#279fd2;} To this website: www.frescoristorante.com however, you will see that the hover is still gray...the blue color I applied only shows up when I hover over very small and specific areas...any ideas?

What if you added !important tag like so: `.main_nav ul li:hover {background:#0f4357!important; color:#279fd2!important;}` What does that change?

Hi Adam, thank you for the reply. However it had no affect :/

I think the selector was incorrect, try: .main-nav li:hover {background:#0f4357; color:#279fd2;}

Same thing

I am able to see it when I hover over the drop down menu and then hover over the thin dark separator lines...I don't know if that helps but thought I should mention it.

What colors/look are you trying to achieve. Do you want the top level menu items to be the same look as the sub menu items on inactive and hover or do you want the sub items to be the same as the top level? If you can specify I can better help with the code

Try: .main-nav li a:hover {background:#0f4357!important; color:#fff!important;}

That worked! Thank you! What was it in the code that did it? What was the genius behind it?

Two things. It needed to target the a element, not the li. And it needed the !important to trump the other rules.
