@nickcates Hi I am using the Forward Theme, i cannot get the Menu colours how i would like them, maybe one of you kind people would like to help ?. I cannot find the Colour settings i need in the Master Style anywhere. I have asked Nick Cates about it as well, but i guess he is busy doing good work elsewhere. [www.timmytoad.net](http://www.timmytoad.net) I have Four items in the Main Menu, the colours i have for these are what i would like for the two drop down menus, that is all it is. For example, when a parent link is clicked, the sub menu pops down, hover over the links the Black page name changes to White, which is good. But what i would also like to happen is the background colour change to Red. It is probably easy for you chaps, if someone could give me a clue please i would be very pleased. [![](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/6mj9l8tov18214y/Screenshot%202016-09-18%2017.44.04.png?dl=0) ](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/6mj9l8tov18214y/Screenshot%202016-09-18%2017.44.04.png?dl=0) PS. i would also think that the Parent Page Link in this screenshot should have a Red Background ? it doesnt look right, how it is ATM. Later:- I have figured out, the answer must lay in here somewhere ``` nav.theme ul.l1 > li.open > a, nav.theme ul.l2 > li, nav.theme ul.l2 li.open > a, nav.theme ul.l2 li.open { background-color: #BFD2FD; } ``` Tim ---

I will try to have a look at your actual page later today @timmytoad, SIteStyles? Are you using foundation/topbar? There is a setting in the TopBar - TopBar styles that controls hover etc. ---

Sorry @swilliam but i am using the Forward theme from Nick Cates. I have used Foundation but have found that a tad too complicated for my limited skills 😉 If this challenge is deemed to be to diffiicult, i might give up on the idea and just be happy with the Page Links changing from Black to White. Let me know what you think buddy. Tim ---

@nickcates In your Forward theme, as in the example you’ve made here, is there a way to make just one item in the drop down menu a different colour? Could the one page-link here titled “Untitled Page Copy Copy,” be made brown (or any other colour) and all the other links in the same dropdown be remain the same blue? Is there a way to do that–no matter how difficult? Even if it had to be hand-coded, is there a way to do that? Thanks.
