    I am trying to change the color of the text in de menu of my theme (Grid Portfolio Theme) so I went to the editor and then to the style, and I found this:

    /* Header */

    #menu_container { width: 938px; padding: 20px 15px; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee; }
    #menu_container ul { list-style-type: none; }
    #menu_container ul li { float: left; margin: 0 10px; font-size: 11px; }
    #menu_container .left_list { float: left; }
    #menu_container .right_list { float: right; }
    #menu_container .right_list li { margin: 0 5px; }

    The problem is that when I change the values in font-size it doesn’t work. I also want to know how to change the color.

    I am knew at this, I,ve been trying to learn searching for info in internet but I haven’t been able to do it.
    Please help me!

    Try using Firefox with the Firebug add-on for this kind of CSS work.

    Yes but you need to learn how to use CSS. It is beyond the scope of these forums to deal with basic CSS issues. Try a dedicated CSS resource such as http://www.css-discuss.org/ instead.

    Firebug (there are similar tools for some other browsers)is only a tool to investigate which styles are applied to the menu items, for instance, and to try what to change;

    the final changes need to be made within style.css of your theme.

    you will need to know you way around css.

    helping with fundamental formatting issues is not within the scope of this WordPres forum.
