 * Hello everybody,
 * I added a menu to my website in the footer, which has a hover effect. Certify
   has this effect in red, but that’s too biting for me. With my CSS skills I can’t
   make it to a green (#56c72b) hover effect. Can someone help me?
 * Thank you very much
 * Best regards
    Philipp
