Oxygen theme menus

    I just had my site migrated over from WordPress.com to WordPress.org. I’m trying to change the colours of the font and background of my menus, but when I make changes in the CSS (Appearance>Edit) nothing changes on the site. I’ve refreshed, closed out, even opened the site on a completely different computer but no luck. Any ideas what I’m doing wrong?

    Thanks for any help in advance!

    Hi Mel,
    It would help if you give the url of your site so we could see how to solve the problem. Thanks!

    You shouldn’t edit the theme files directly, because you’ll lose all those changes if the theme ever gets updated. Instead, you should either make a child theme or get a custom CSS plugin.

    With that being said, make sure you’re editing the correct file. Your theme doesn’t load style.css, it loads style.min.css.

    Thanks! I was editing the style.min.css and still nothing happened. I’ll try out the child theme or get the custom plugin and see if either of those work. I appreciate the links!

    Hi Mel,

    If you have a custom.css file in your theme (appearance/editor) you can input directly this code and select the color of your choice:

    #access a {
  background-color: brown;
  color: #7ac143;
}

    This will transform both the menu font and background color. Hope this helps.
