Hello

Styling can be applied using the unique ID of your menu item. This ID can be found in the right column of your menu items list. To use simply add the following to the Custom CSS field of your templates parameters where 482 is your menu item and #FF0000 is your new menu item color (edit to taste).

#hornav .item-482 a {

    color: #FF0000;

}

Hi,

Can this be applied to other templates as well? Im trying this in pianoforte, but it does not seem to work...

Hi Digitus

Yes this would also work for our PianoForte. Try changing the CSS slightly to the following where 482 is the your menu item ID...

#hornav .item-482 a {

    color: #FF0000 !important;

}

Failing that please post a URL to an example of the menu item you wish to change.

Hi Ciarán, I'd like to do what you do on most templates: under example styles change the color of the menu, titles and background.
If I install a test site with the demo data thats included with the template, those example styles will be in there as well?

Ah, found it: different template styles. Still cant get it to work, seems that the demo joomla has an older version of the template in it

I created another template style, hooked it up to a menu item, but doesnt work yet. Maybe Im overlooking something...

Hello

Just to confirm, you have a assigned your template style to your menu item via the 'Menu Assignment' tab in your templates styles parameters (Extrensions -> Temnplate Manager -> [YourTemplateStyle] -> Menu Asssignment)?

Ciarán

Yes! And double checked it by going to the menu item - template style and it gives the style I assigned it. Still no different style if I click that menu item on the site.

Excuse me for hijacking this thread by the way, its not even under the correct forum

Hi Digitus

May I suggest sending temporary administration access to your Joomla installation to info@joomla51.com and we will examine this issue further. For our reference please paste a link to this post in your email.

Ciarán

Thank you

I have disabled the 'System - Helix Framework' plugin and your template menu assignment appears to be now working correctly.

Ciarán

Awesome, thanks for the quick fix! I probably would not have found that on my own
