Change Navigation Menu Color?

I've been trying to find the file that contains the code for this, but not having any luck. I am using the UNI template and I'm just trying to change the top navigation menu color to a blue instead of white.

Which file contains the code to make such changes?

Use the firebug extension for firefox! - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/firebug/

PS: If possible do not write me personally, please try to ask on the forum first

Its a good extension i guess. But that still doesn't fix me not knowing which line of code is for the navigation tab.

The firebug plug in allows you to see the css for the items you need to change. Right click and select inspect element and firbug will tell you what css file and at what line the css is that controls it.

The top menus code does not need to be changed. Only the CSS. And you will find most of them are images.

The css is in templates\base\css\top-menu.css

Firebug will tell you exactly where in the file each item is.

You will need to turn off dolphins CSS caching to use firebug tho. Otherwise all you will see is the contents of the cache file.

would also like to share that notepad++ is an excellent editor for your site. it has an FTP plugin so you can ftp open the file, make your edits, click on save, the file pushes back up to the server. open browser, clear browsers cache,

from notepad++ you can clear your cache and cache_pubilc directories, leaving the .htaccess file in place.

 

call your site and see if the changes are what you were expecting. if not, you can go to notepad++ hit the undo button or ctrl+z and this will undo your actions. then click save again, and you have restored your file to its original state.

 

note of advice on this as well. if you are editing the uni template, its best to follow the practice of creating your own template, by copying the uni template and renaming the appropriate locations. that way if you wreck your template like many of us have, you can still fall back on uni.

 Firebug does not tell you what file the code it's displaying is in. It only displays the code.

If it did display file names that would be great, but an insane security risk too because it would also show configurations that include user and database names and the passwords. Firebug cuts the time it takes to figure things out in half, but it doesn't give you all the answers.

Try using stylizer, the best there is. You have a 30 day free trial period, so you can get a lot done.

Stylizer. Oh I DO NOT work for them. I have used in in the past and even for a novice like it was easy.

Thanks, presscon! Does it do what Firebug does not do?  - tell you what file the code you're looking at is in?
