Hey there LF96,
How are you doing today?
I’ve checked the theme to see if there are any color options and aside from the background color available in Appearance -> Customize -> Colors I couldn’t find any so I’m assuming you’ll have to do this with some custom CSS.
Would you mind posting link to your site and let me know which parts you’d like to replace so I can help 🙂
Cheers,
BojanHey Bojan!
Thank you a lot for your support!
The link to my website is http://www.faymann.at (its an Austrian (German) Website)
I would like to change the color of the “Read more”-button, the color of the font when the mouse is located on a point in the menu (über mich, meine anliegen, schülerunion burgenland” and the background-color of the header of a site (also über mich, meine anliegen, schülerunion burgenland)
Thanks
LukasHey Lukas,
Thanks for the link 🙂
To change the background color of the read more button please try adding the following to Appearance -> Theme Options -> Design Options -> Custom CSS:
a.readmore { background-color: #63C6AE; }Replace the color hex value to display different color. You can use sites similar to this one to get hex value for the color of your choice: http://www.color-hex.com/.
To change menu link hover and current menu link color please try adding the following:
#access a:hover, #access ul li.current-menu-item a, #access ul li.current_page_ancestor a, #access ul li.current-menu-ancestor a, #access ul li.current_page_item a, #access ul li:hover > a { color: #63C6AE; }Also replace the color hex value, same applies for the following code as well.
And for page header color please add the following:
.page-title-wrap { background-color: #63C6AE; }Hope this helps 🙂
Cheers,
BojanI’m looking for a way to change the menu color as well.
However, I had no success with your suggestion for the menu colors. I just checked Lucas’s website and he hasn’t changed the default menu color ether.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
PaulHey Paul,
If you could post link to your site and let me know what colors you’d want to change I’d be more then happy to take a look 🙂

BojanThanks,

I want to change the homepage banner “THE TRUSTED NAME IN BUSINESS SECURITY” color.
Also, I would like to change the color on the contact info bar icons. (located at the very top of the page)
The ability to change link hover colors would be great as well.
Hey VidVerve,
Please try adding the following as described above:
section.slogan-wrap { background-color: #63C6AE; } #branding .info-bar { background-color: #555; }This should change both banner section and top bar background colors. Replace color hex values do display another color.
As for the color of the links which links do you want to change color to? Top bar or menu links?
Please advise,
BojanThanks, the “slogan-wrap” color change worked well.
However, I was looking to change the actual icons in the info bar and not the background color. Would I have to replace the icon files?
I’ve already changed the menu links using your above code. (thanks)
I also want to change the link color in the testimonial widget on the home page (http://vsfus.vidverve.com/preview)
Hey VidVerve,
Icons being used there are added in the after element for each of those 3 info li-s, you can find other available icons here http://genericons.com/. You can simply replace code in the content to show different icon http://screencast.com/t/gLliiil1l.
In case you want to show custom images there it can also be done with CSS by adding the following:
.info-bar .info ul li.phone-number:before { content: ""; background-image: url(Insert_Image_URL); background-size: contain; } .info-bar .info ul li.email:before { content: ""; background-image: url(Insert_Image_URL); background-size: contain; } .info-bar .info ul li.address:before { content: ""; background-image: url(Insert_Image_URL); background-size: contain; }Replace dummy URLs with the actual URLs to your images.
As for changing links in the testimonial section the only link I can see there is this one http://screencast.com/t/jRBC9sak8cjv, you can change it’s color by adding the following:
.widget_testimonial .testimonial-meta a { color: #63c6ae; }Replace the color hex value to display another color.
If you have additional questions unrelated to what you asked above please open a new thread in the forum.
Hope this helps 🙂
Cheers,
BojanThanks a lot! I will try this out soon.
