    SOLVED How to eliminate background shadow from menu item titles (Joomla)

    Posted 10 years 8 months ago
    • Hi, I need help to lean how to eliminate the background shadow from the main menu items titles?
      I found a solved case where this code for the custom css is offered as solution, but it did not worked for me. I just realized that the solution was given in a Wordpress case, so, I am guessing that it might be that I need a different kind of code for Joomla.

      This is the style code I found and added to my gantry-custom.css and did not work:

      .gf-menu li:hover, .gf-menu li.active:hover {
      box-shadow: none;
      -webkit-box-shadow: none;
      -moz-box-shadow: none;
      }

      Thanks!

      you should add it to the custom css file that you ahve already created and that you mentioned in your original post on this topic here www.rockettheme.com/forum/gantry-framewo...omla?start=0#1096497 If this solves your issue, please mark the subject of your original post [SOLVED]. Likewise, if you still need help please reply with details. Cheers :)

    • Hi, thank you! The change worked, but the menu items are no almost invisible. I need them black or almost black. How can this be fixed?

    • Thanks again,
      The change works, but now, the submenu items are difficult to read against the dark color of the background.
      I tried several combinations of colors, but I could not get the sub-menu titles to be more readable while still keeping the man menu items dark.

    • switch it with this:
      .menu-block .gf-menu li .item, .menu-block .gf-menu li:hover .item {text-shadow: none;}
      .menu-block .gf-menu.l1 > li > .item {color: #555;}
      .menu-block .gf-menu li.active .item {color: #E5E5E5;}
      
      by the way remove this:
      .gf-menu li:hover, .gf-menu li.active:hover {
          box-shadow: none;
          -webkit-box-shadow: none;
          -moz-box-shadow: none;
          }
