    Hi,

    Use this CSS code

    .ht-main-navigation .ht-menu a{
    color: #FFF;
    }

    .ht-main-navigation .ht-menu a:hover{
    color: yellow;
    }

    Thank you, that partially worked – the “hover” color does not work but I can live with that.

    The only remaining issue I have concerns the Archive News drop down which appears in my footer. The footer has a dark background, and the dropdown box inherits that background while it remains unclicked – so the “Select” option is not visible/readable, but if someone clicks on the control the list of months appears with a white background OK

    Have you change the theme again?

    My Masthead colours have disappeared and the logo and menu are oversized.

    I have so much custom CSS in this site that I am reluctant to upgrade it to PRO (I have an unlimited licence) because I dont know how much would be lost or messed up in the upgrade and dont really want the extra work. However, I just tried to load the pro theme and every time I try to upload the theme from a zip file I get an error:-

    “The link you followed has expired.
    Please try again.”

    Hi,

    In the latest update, we have added an option to configure the colors of the menu. Please check the customizer settings again.

    Thank you.

    OK thanks, I have been able to reconfigure the masthead and menu colours.

    You did not answer the other questions I raised:

    1. Why did I get the following error when I tried to install the Plus version of the theme?
    “The link you followed has expired. Please try again.”

    2. Why are my footer widgets all appearing in a single column when I have specified a three-column footer?

    I now have a couple of other errors that I need help resolving

    3. The maximum size of the logo now means there is a white gap between the masthead and the slider on the homepage, and between the masthead and the title bar on other pages, how do I fix this?

    4. Although there are now typography options, I cant see how to change the font used for the menu items – how can I do that?

    Thanks in advance.

    1. Why did I get the following error when I tried to install the Plus version of the theme?
    “The link you followed has expired. Please try again.”
    >> It is a common error that occurs due to hosting restrictions. Here is the fix to the issue https://hashthemes.com/link-you-followed-has-expired-error-in-wordpress/

    2. Why are my footer widgets all appearing in a single column when I have specified a three-column footer?
    >> Are you using a child theme? or have made any changes in the code. If yes, then you will need to redo the child theme again or delete the child theme.

    3. The maximum size of the logo now means there is a white gap between the masthead and the slider on the homepage, and between the masthead and the title bar on other pages, how do I fix this?
    >> There is an option to configure the logo width in the updated version. Please check the customizer settings. And i do not see the gap between the header and slider or title bar.

    4. Although there are now typography options, I cant see how to change the font used for the menu items – how can I do that?
    >> There is an option in the Menu panel in the customizer. Please go through our updated documentation.

    Thanks for your response.

    1. I have managed to overcome the theme upload error “The link you followed has expired. Please try again.” My htaccess file already included one line relating to upload sizes so had to add the other three lines.

    Note that I still cant use the Plus theme, as my site will require significant re-configuration – is there a way of importing settings from the free theme or does everything have to be set up from scratch?

    2. The footer layout is now correct. I WAS using a child theme, but only to allow me to have a personalised footer.php file (which I have now removed) and I can see that this file in the Total theme is now considerably different from before. I assume this is to discourage users from suppressing the Hashthemes “advert” in the footer – or is there a way to do that easily?

    3. The problem with the gap between the masthead and the slider was fixed by me, when I removed some CSS that you told me I needed about 4 years ago and is now clearly redundant.

    4. I had already found, and used, the typography options relating to menu item text. However, the selected font is only being applied to the top level menu items. Sub-menu items do not inherit this setting and are being displayed as Times Roman, or similar. How can I change this for sub-menu items on drop downs?

    I have a new issue to ask about:

    5. The Archive News drop down, which appears in my footer. was previously inheriting the same background colour as the footer, and was not readable. You previously told me to add this CSS code

    .widget select {
    background: #FFF;
    }

    This now only works when the drop down is displaying the “Select Month”, when I click on the control the text and the background are both white and the months to select are only visible when I hover the cursor over them. How can I change the background to black please?
