    Hi,

    I have Centric Pro and am trying to find the code via firebug for the menu hover background color and text hover color change. Can anybody help with this?

    Having used WooThemes prior I knew to put the code in Custom CSS. Where do you put the "custom" code in a Genesis framework?

    Thanks.

    You will need to change these properties in the style.css file.

    
    .genesis-nav-menu li a:hover,
    .genesis-nav-menu .current-menu-item > a {
    	background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1);
    	color: #fff;
    }
    

    It starts at line 1269.

    Hi thanks for responding. I think I am close. I changed it to:

    .genesis-nav-menu li a:hover,
    .genesis-nav-menu .current-menu-item > a {
    	background-color: #2BB7E2;
    	color: #dadbe0;
    }

    But that didn't do it. In theory (at least in my head) that should change the background color to the same as the header (blue) and make the text turn light gray. I am trying to match my other website's menu so it appears more seamless (http://gallery.visualvoodoo.com).

    Thanks for helping.

    P.S. what's a good plugin that will show the code line that you are referencing?

    I changed the color to: #6d6e71; so that it would be more obvious when it was working. It also appears that when the menu is closed (vs expanded) there would be a different code...

    Thanks again!

    I see what you are looking to do.

    So at line 1269, change the code to this:

    .genesis-nav-menu li a:hover,
    .genesis-nav-menu .current-menu-item > a {
    	background-color: none;
    	color: #dadbe0;
    }

    On line 1211, remove the 'color: fff; ' property so it looks like this:

    .site-header .widget-area a,
    .site-header .widget-area a:hover {
    	
    }

    I think these changes will give you your desired result.

    Just thought of a question....when there is an update, to this theme...will this code get over-written?
