 * Hello,
 * Hopefully someone can help me out with this. I want to get rid of the default
   blue hover box on the menu bar so that there is no hover box color. However I
   would like for the TEXT to have the blue when I am to hovering on it. Sorry for
   any confusion.
 * Thanks!

 * In your [Child Theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes) or [CSS Editor Plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css/)
   try this code:
 *     ```
       .main-navigation ul li:hover > a, .main-navigation ul ul li:hover > a {
         background: transparent;
         color: #00bcff;
       }
       ```
   
 * **\*Note**
    If your theme has a custom CSS Editor in it, you can also paste the
   code in there.
 * Never edit core CSS or PHP files, they’ll be deleted when the theme is updated.
