Hi,

I was wondering how to go about changing the top menu and footer background colour in the JA_T3_Blank template. As you can see at the moment it is the default red color, I would like to change this to a custom colour. I have checked the custom.css file and others but cannot find the parameter to change.

Thanks for your help,

Saco.

Hi

Try in this way

For the footer background add the code below to your custom.css file

#ja-navhelper .main-inner1 {
background:#yourcolor!important;
}

For the mainnav add

#ja-mainnav .main-inner1 {
background:#yourcolor!important;
}

Hi Pavit,

thanks for your response!,

I have tried creating a new custom.css file in /templates/ja_t3_blank/css and added the following as you said.

#ja-navhelper .main-inner1 {
background:#000000!important;
}

#ja-mainnav .main-inner1 {
background:#000000!important;
}

But the menu backgrounds are still red, where am I going wrong?, thanks!

Hi

You cannot use custom.css file since you are using the JATV2 Blank template ver.2.5.8

Btw i modified your /themes/more_contrast_red/css/template.css changing background colors at line 38

#ja-mainnav .main-inner1 { background: #000000 }
and line 46

#ja-navhelper .main-inner1 {
background: #000000
}

Hi,

Thanks very much for the fix, the changes you made work fine, but I have tried to change the colour in the template.css file but the backgound remains black. The reason being that I get a critical error when trying to upload the new template.css file via ftp.

How did you edit the file without using ftp?, I’m new to this so thanks for your patience!,

Saco.
