So this submenu issue is actually going to be solved and easier to manage from the theme option settings with a few new colour options that were added. I also removed the gradient and made is a solid colour only. * Just have to wait for the review team at WordPress here to approve the update and it will be live. However, if you contact me from my site, I can email you the new update which is version 1.6.9 * Thread Starter [Kingbyro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kingbyro/) * (@kingbyro) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-menu-border/#post-3833888) * Thanks alot for getting back to me. That link is what I’ve already tried but with no joy. * Is it ok to email me the new update?

However, the one thing that still needs to be done as customization is the little mobile menu button. This is where you can copy the menu css and add it to the child theme style.css to override it. * In the /css/menu.css from line 3, you will copy most of everything between: * /* Main Menu Toggle */ * …to * /* Navigation Menu */ * In between that are the mobile button styling, so the parts you will only need to copy to the child theme are the sections that look like this: * ``` .menu-toggle { color: #fff; background-color: #e6e6e6; background-repeat: repeat-x; background-color: #618b9b; background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #8db9c9, #618b9b); background-image: -webkit-gradient(linear, 0 0, 0 100%, from(#618b9b), to(#8db9c9)); background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, #8db9c9, #618b9b); background-image: -o-linear-gradient(top, #8db9c9, #618b9b); background-image: linear-gradient(to bottom, #8db9c9, #618b9b); } ``` * Now these use css3 gradients, so you can either simply change the hex values you see there like: #8db9c9, #618b9b…etc, or you can use an online tool to create your gradient, copy the code, then paste to replace the css in the menu.css file. You can check out this one online to generate your gradient: * [http://www.colorzilla.com/gradient-editor/](http://www.colorzilla.com/gradient-editor/) * Or, you can just remove the gradient and use a background-color only if that makes it easier. * Thread Starter [Kingbyro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kingbyro/) * (@kingbyro) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-menu-border/#post-3833910) * Hello, * I’ve tried all the colours in the site and none of them seem to change the mobile menu on my iphone? * Also, the menu.css is different to your extract. * Mine starts: * /* Navigation Menu */ #gj-menu { text-align: center; } #gj-menu a { color: # fff; } #gj-menu a:hover { color: #f8d9b0; } #gj-menu ul.menu > ul { display: none; } .navbar { margin-bottom:0; } * [@media](https://wordpress.org/support/users/media/) (min-width: 680px) { .mainmenu ul.menu, .mainmenu > ul { display: inline-block; width: 100%; * And that’s from the theme you emailed me. * Thanks a lot for your help * Regards * Ryan * Theme Author [Styled Themes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gejay/) * (@gejay) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-menu-border/#post-3833913) * That’s the old code….I just looked at the one I sent you and what you pasted above is not correct. How did you update the theme? Basically you will be replacing“ all” the files in your current preference lite with the unzipped files of the one I sent, which is version 1.6.9. * Do you have any kind of cache installed? * Thread Starter [Kingbyro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kingbyro/) * (@kingbyro) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-menu-border/#post-3833914) * I used filezilla to copy across the theme you sent me and overwrote my existing files. I must have missed the CSS folder somehow. * It’s in there now, but there is still no option for the mobile menu in the navigation section tho * Regards * Ryan * Theme Author [Styled Themes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gejay/) * (@gejay) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-menu-border/#post-3833916) * If you go to the theme options from the dashboard home and click on the Customize your Site button, then on the Navigation tab, is there colour selectors for things like the submenu background? If not, is there a way I can get access to your admin? If so, please contact me from my website contact page with your details( don’t post them here). * ** there should be a total of 8 colour selectors on the Navigation tab in the customizer. * Thread Starter [Kingbyro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kingbyro/) * (@kingbyro) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-menu-border/#post-3833918) * Yes there are selectors for submenu options, which change the site perfectly. * It doesn’t effect the mobile site though, my iphone shows a blue menu button, and the dropdown is all blue. It’s almost as if the submenu options need to force the ‘important’ statement to force it into the colour change * Regards * Ryan * Theme Author [Styled Themes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gejay/) * (@gejay) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-menu-border/#post-3833919) * ah ok now I see… obviously something is not right. I will jump on a fix for this right away. * Thread Starter [Kingbyro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kingbyro/) * (@kingbyro) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-menu-border/#post-3833920) * Wow, this is amazing support!! * Thanks sooooo much * Regards * Ryan * Theme Author [Styled Themes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gejay/) * (@gejay) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-menu-border/#post-3833921) * lol… I found the problem which I did the code for the submenu background but as you discovered, the submenu background doesn’t work on the mobile view. That is because I did not add one extra style for it. Anyway, I will email you the new one to test out before I resubmit the update to WordPress here 🙂 * I swear I need a vacation, lol * Thread Starter [Kingbyro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kingbyro/) * (@kingbyro) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-menu-border/#post-3833922) * Cool * Look forward to testing 🙂 * Thread Starter [Kingbyro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kingbyro/) * (@kingbyro) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-menu-border/#post-3833925) * Well i’ll be…….. * WORKS a charm!! * Thanks sooo much!! * Now all I’ve gotta do is change the button (which has moved to the centre of the menu bar) Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 30 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-menu-border/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-menu-border/page/2/?output_format=md) The topic ‘Sub-menu border??’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://i0.wp.com/themes.svn.wordpress.org/preference-lite/1.8.7/screenshot. png) * Preference Lite * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/preference-lite/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/preference-lite/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/preference-lite/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/preference-lite/reviews/) * 30 replies * 3 participants * Last reply from: [Styled Themes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gejay/) * Last activity: [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-menu-border/page/2/#post-3834148) * Status: resolved
