@Prodigy: Welcome! I'd actually been looking for this thread, which is why I even noticed it. Lol.

Also, uhm, I grabbed your free temlate to just splash some colour on, and I can't figure out something.

If you hover over the 'my profile' button and the other two, the text gets an boxed in a colour while the background is a diff colour. I can't make sense of it and figure out why it's doing that.

Any chance you could help? [Even if just to say it's not doing that on your end, and it's only doing it on mine.]

@Lynne: Lol glad it's at least helping out! ^^ I took a look at the code and it looks like the li for those links is getting a hover background but the links themselves are still getting the dark blue hover background. If you add this it should help!

#user_links ul li a:hover {
background: #1ca4d8 !important;
color: #242869 !important;
}

Ok. I think I know the issue with that little bit. Because what you gave me before didn't help.

It's something to do with the background.
Because with no background dictated - it's black. But it's visible. With a background, it's boxed in black.

Blah

Edit:
And the top nav does the same thing

@Lynne: So I figured out what's going on. The original template is coded to have the hover background on the li but the text color is controlled by the a within the li. This can get tricky when it comes to messing with the hover because if you hover over just the edge of the li without being on the actual a link the color might not change properly. >< There is a way to get around it, though. You can remove the padding from the li (#user_links ul li) and then set a new padding to the link (#user_links ul li a). Here's an example:

#user_links ul li a {color: #fff !important; background: #000; display: inline-block; width: 100%; padding: 10px;}
#user_links ul li {padding: 0px !important;}


Let me know if that works!


@Totalanimefan: Thank you! :D

@Reanna: You're very welcome. ^^
