    Hi,

    I'd like to change the fonts (whatever - size, or transform, or color...) but just in custom menu I use in widgets using Simple Sidebars.

    For example - default a { color: #fff; } uses font color for all the widgets, and if I change it, it changes the font color everywhere.

    If I use widget_nav_menu I change the font in all the widget_nav_menus (including those founded in footer, but I don't want so). I want to change just those used in specific sidebar - would you please help me with those?

    tnx,

    Danijel

    When you add your custom menu to the sidebar, it will give that custom menu a "class of it's own". You can use Firebug for Firefox or look to see if your browser has a developer tool to locate that menu class. If you provide a link to your site and add your menu, I can help you locate it.

    Antiac, tnx for a help.

    As for a "class of it's own", the code for that part I'm mentioning seems like:
    <section id="nav_menu-4" class="widget widget_nav_menu">

    So, I suppose I should put in my style.css sth like:

    #nav_menu-4 {
    color: #000; }

    to change the font color to black, etc. ?

    Sorry for not providing a link, but I'm preparing a site offline so it's on my localhost...

    Got it!


    .menu-flebologija-container li {
    font-family: 'Open Sans Condensed';
    text-transform: uppercase;
    font-size: 20px;
    font-size: 2.0rem;
    color: #de3233;
    margin-bottom: 0.1rem;
    background: url("images/icon-li.png") no-repeat scroll 0 13px / 8px 8px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)
    }

    It wasn't the 1st ID, nor the 2nd one, but exact div ID where starts the ul

    tnx for a kind and helpful hint (ie. that all the custom menus got the "class on it's own"...

    Great! Did you use Firebug?

    Yes, for finding the correct ID... You've made just a tiny confusion with "class" and that's what I was looking for at the first glance, and then I've tried with an ID and that was correct 😉

    ...just to make a point - at the end it is a class but the path is somehow long for us - the beginners...
