    Asked before but got no response.  I want to change the color of the Agency 2 menu bar to gold.  Also want the background color to be gold from top of website down to bottom (right now top doesn't change to gold when I set background color).

    Thanks,

    Hi Adam,

    To change the background of the menubar find this code in your themes stylesheet.

    .menu-primary, .menu-secondary, #header .menu {

        background: #FFF;
        margin: 0;
        overflow: hidden;
        padding: 0;
        width: 100%;

    }

    add a background property and set the color code to what you want.

    For the background color: REMOVE background property in body tag

    body {

        background: url("images/bg.png") repeat-x scroll 0 0 #F1F1F1;

    }

    thanks, finally figured most of that out on my own by trial and error.  however, now that i've got the gold menu, wondering how to make the menu font bold (or at least a thicker font) as seems very thin, want it more powerful.

    Heres the code for that:

    .menu-primary li a, .menu-secondary li a, #header .menu li a {

        color: #000000;
        display: block;
        font-size: 14px;
        padding: 6px 15px 4px;
        position: relative;
        text-decoration: none;

    }

    ADD THIS
    font-weight: bold;

    good luck.  trying to setup paypal and the url that premise is supposed to generate isn't there.  and then the headers for agency are too big for the headers for premise landing pages, but not sure what size the landing pages are to resize them.  hoping at least that they are responsive headers and not going to have to use the genesis header plugin with it.  anyway, hoping it will be worth the $97, 28 days left to figure it out 🙂
