 * Good day dear Coders, I’m experiencing a weird problem with the Menu on the website,
   I set the Menu Background to White also on Sticky Mode. But when I scroll down
   it turns back to Black making the Logo invisible. Any idea where I’ve gone wrong?
   Thanx in Advance

 * Hi [@muzimak](https://wordpress.org/support/users/muzimak/),
 * Thanks for contacting us.
 * I visited your site URL for more context, but it appears to be in maintenance
   mode, so I’m not able to view your current homepage.
 * Could you please provide more details about how you’ve set the menu background
   color? In the Sydney theme’s customizer settings, it’s possible to set the background
   color for the entire header, not just the menu. I would like to confirm if this
   is what you’ve done so I can offer more targeted advice.
 * For your reference, here’s a screencast showing how I’ve set the header background
   color on my local install: [Screencast](https://a.supportally.com/v/OefoKd).
 * Please let me know.

 * Hi [@muzimak](https://wordpress.org/support/users/muzimak/),
 * Thanks for the follow-up.
 * I took a look at the source code of your site, and I found exactly where the 
   conflict is coming from.
 * There’s a custom CSS code that was manually added to the **Additional CSS** section
   of your WordPress Customizer, and it is overriding the theme customizer settings.
   Here’s a [screencast](https://a.supportally.com/v/G5OzIS) for your reference.
 * To fix this, you just need to remove that custom CSS code. Navigate to **Appearance
   > Customize** **>** **Additional CSS** tab. Scroll through the code box until
   you find this exact block of code:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       .sticky-header-active .has-sticky-header .shfb-main_header_row {    background-color: var(--sydney-global-color-6);}
       ```
   
 *  Delete that specific block of code and click the **Publish** button at the top
   to save your changes.
 * Once that rule is removed, the sticky header should go back to respecting your
   regular theme customizer settings.
 * I hope this helps.
