 * This is quite a basic query but I’ve been searching all the ‘customise’ options
   and trawled through the forum to no avail.
 * I want to change the colour of the primary menu on the Biography theme. It is
   currently white but the picture I’m using underneath has a lot of white on it
   which means you can’t read most of the menu. None of the options in the colors
   tab change the color of the primary menu. Any ideas?
 * Thanks

 * Hi [@jamesra](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamesra/), to change the primary
   menu color you need to write custom CSS code that goes like this.
 *     ```
       .biography-nav-left .main-navigation a {
           color: #FFFF00 !important; /* change HEX color value as you like */
       }
       ```
   
 * Paste this code in Customize -> Theme Options -> Custom CSS .
 * But it’s Pro version has this ability to change the color simply from **Customize-
   > Colors** section without any headache :).

 * Hope it helps solving your issue.
