Menu Icon changes Color if Submenu is active

Resolved 28 replies premiumthemetheme-vantage

Hey there,
I have a problem with icons in menu. Its an icon that keeps the color if the menu-section is active. The problem is that this icon changes the color back to normal if I click the submenu. But the text-color of the parent-menu is still active, thats right. I added this custom css:

/*Menü-Submenü Farben*/
.current_page_parent a {
color: #ff9500;
}
.sub-menu a {
  color: #e2e2e2;
}
.sub-menu a:hover {
color: #ff9500;
}

Can you please tell me what I am doing wrong?
Thanks for your very good support :-)

    No idea anyone?

    Hi David,

    Could you provide me with a URL so that I may see the issue.

    Cheers!

  3. David 10 years, 11 months ago

    sorry I cant, but I can show you the problem. The icon in the main menu is only colored if the mouse hover over it or if the main menu item is active. If the submenu is active the icon gets white again

    Hi David

    This is a unique issue and it would be convenient if we had a direct link to the website so that I can troubleshot this

    Would you mind providing one?

    Hi David

    First of all I apologize for the delayed response.

    I have just checked your site and everything seems to be running as expected. Did you have this solved?

    Kindly let me know

  9. David 10 years, 10 months ago

    No the problem still exists. If you go to “Warenkorb”, its the submenu of “Shop” then the Cart Icon of “Shop” becomes grey and not #ff9500
    Thats the problem

  10. Daniel Staff 10 years, 10 months ago

    Hi David

    Now i get you ;) If you navigate to Appearance > Custom CSS, you’ll get our custom CSS editor. Just add the following code.

    body.page-id-620 .fa-shopping-cart:before {
        color: #ff9500 !important;
    }

    Let me know if that works out for you

    Cheers

  11. David 10 years, 10 months ago

    thank you for your response, but this didnt solve the problem

    Hi David

    Would it be possible for you to create a temporary admin account for us so we can log in and take a look? You can create the account with the following email address:

    [email protected]

    Just navigate to Users > Add New in your WordPress admin. Enter siteorigin for the username and [email protected] for the email address. Make sure you’ve selected Administrator for the role and enabled the “Send Password” field so we receive the details.

    Once we’re finished taking a look, you can delete this account. We’ll let you know when to do that.

    Hey Addo,
    okay I created an admin account for you.
    Please take a look..

  15. Daniel Staff 10 years, 10 months ago

    Hi David

    Sorry about the hassle. It seems nothing came through to this end. Just send an email to [email protected] so that I get the new login credentials.

    Again I apologize for this taking longer than expected.

    Hey David, glad you’re online. Would you like to try this quickly, under Appearance > Custom CSS:

    /* Vantage Current Menu Item Colors */
    .main-navigation ul li.current-menu-item > a, .main-navigation ul li.current_page_item > a { background-color: #000000 }
    .main-navigation ul li.current-menu-item > a, .main-navigation ul li.current-menu-item > a [class^="icon-"],
    .main-navigation ul li.current_page_item > a, .main-navigation ul li.current_page_item > a [class^="icon-"] { color: #ffffff }

    There are two colors above, change the first color to whatever the menu item background must be when current/active and change the second color to whatever the text and icon must be when active.

    Let us know how that goes.

  21. David 10 years, 10 months ago

    This didnt solve the problem, nothing changed.
    Can you login with your login-credentials?

  22. Andrew Misplon Staff 10 years, 10 months ago

    Unfortunately not, same problem as earlier. A blank page that says “Blocked”. Are you running a security plugin?

  23. Andrew Misplon Staff 10 years, 10 months ago

    Or are you geo-blocking? We’re in South Africa.

    Thanks. Please change the CSS you already have from:

    .current_page_parent a {
    color: #ff9500;
    }

    to this:

    .current_page_parent a,
    .current_page_parent a [class^="fa fa-"] {
    color: #ff9500;
    }

    Apologies for the hassle. I’ll log a bug report for this now.

  26. David 10 years, 10 months ago

    thank you very much! :-) This solved my problem!
    I am sorry for the problems you had with me, thank you for your very good support :-)

  27. Andrew Misplon Staff 10 years, 10 months ago

    No problem at all, thanks for hanging in there with us. I’m logging this bug now, we appreciate the feedback.

    All the best.
