Modifying the menubar with custom CSS

Me again! You were quick and helpful last time, and I feel a bit lost in the jungle (especially when hosted on wordpress.com where you can’t really dig around as easily in files).
I want to fiddle a bit with colors, possibly transparency, and also margins/paddings of the menu containers. My problem is that I’m having a hard time finding the class/id that determines all this, so something like:
.menu-primary-container { padding: 4px; }doesn’t make any difference. Could you help me identify which classes/id:s will need changing to alter menu colors (childmenu bars that is), transparency and spacing above and underneath the links?
Much appreciated,
Erik, a lost newbie.The blog I need help with is: vingstaf.com
Hi Erik,
You might want to target the menu with something like this:
.site-header .main-navigation { }It really depends on exactly what kind of styles you are going for. There’s also a Custom CSS forum that might be helpful for locating these selectors and finding help with specific styles.
Bah, finally found it. I had already tried your selectors without any luck, as they were already at 0 height padding. The padding that did it for me was found in the
.site-header .main-navigation li ul a, .site-header .main-navigation li ul li a { }selector haha. Quite hidden, especially when I inspected the element without right-clicking a dropdown link. Ah well, I’ll be self-sufficient from here, and I’ll scour the forums you linked for future reference.Thank you for your help :)
