Menu link hover color change – Olsen theme

Hi all,
I’ve managed to change the hover link color in all areas of my blog except one! The top menu (with the “home” “links” and “about” buttons, etc.) is stumping me.
I am hoping to change it so that when you hover over the links, it’s a different color… rather than the current rusty yellow shade.
But so far, none of my CSS efforts have made a difference in that one spot.
Help? :)
The blog I need help with is onefinehouse.com.
Hi onefinehousecanada
Please try using the code given below i just selected the color red in this. You can change the color according to your requirement:
ul.nav-menu li a:hover { color: red !important; }
Hope this helps.
Thank you, that worked! :)
You’re welcome.
Happy to help you :)
Hi there,
I can’t write code and I have a similar situation with theme colinear.
I have the rusty orangey color when hovering over main menu and I want to change it.
I tried this as you suggested, putting in grey for red:
ul.nav-menu li a:hover {
color: 58606d !important;
}
but nothing changed!
Can you help at all?
Thank you very much.@vanillaraincoat Hi, what is the URL of your website? If you’re using a HEX code, be sure to include the # as well.
ul.nav-menu li a:hover { color: #58606D !important; }
Hi, thank you so much for replying. The URL is

I have tried what you have suggested but that doesn’t work.
Maybe I have made so many attempts that they are conflicting with each other?? I don’t know…
ThanksPlease try the following, I’ve added
!important
because it seems necessary in this case, but if you’ve made several attempts that didn’t work, it might be best removing them in case they cause any further issues.
.main-navigation li.current_page_item > a, .main-navigation li.current-menu-item > a, .main-navigation li.current_page_ancestor > a, .main-navigation li.current-menu-ancestor > a, .main-navigation a:hover { background: #58606D !important; }
If you run into any further issues, please create your own thread: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/forum/css-customization/#new-post
Let me know if that works for you. :)
Hey, this works!
Thank you so much torres126!
Can I ask you another question?
I have a similiar issue with this page:
https://whatsmycolormusical.com/creatives/
The names have that same rusty orange color and I would like to change to grey #58606D
Do you know what code I can insert to make that happen?
Thank you!Sure thing. Are you able to change the colour of that link in the post editor? That’s probably the easiest and most effective way to do that. But if you can’t, this CSS should work:
.post-32 .entry-content a { color: #58606D; }
If you’ve got any other issues though, please create your own thread so that the OP’s email isn’t spammed if they’ve got notifications enabled. We’ll be able to help you out there too! :)
