[Resolved] Changing Navigation Background Color is not working

[Patrick]

Hey Guys,

I have an issue with the style of my Navigation Background color.
I want to change it to White, it does so in the Preview mode but as soon as I save it and reload the page in the browser, it changes back to the previous dark grey. All other Design settings like Font colour etc. are working perfectly fine.

What can I do about that? Any ideas? 🙂

Thanks!
Patrick

Hi there,

Any caching plugin or server caching?

Hey Guys,
sure – sorry I forgot about this..

Yes – I am using Simple Cache.. Is the problem caused somewhere here?

Thank you!

Try clearing the plugin cache and see if it works.

Caching plugin can be a pain when developing the site.

Nope 🙁 Still did not work..

Can you try clearing and disabling the caching plugin, then change try the changing the settings again?

Usually when you can see it in the customizer but not live it’s a caching issue.

Either I did it wrong or there must be another solution to this…
There is still no reaction.

Your navigation has custom colors, so the options must have worked at some point.

Which colors aren’t currently working?

So the dark grey background of the navigation should be completely white. Every other color is working correctly, you are absolutely right!

In the preview the background does so but as mentioned earlies, as soon as I open the page in the browser it is still grey ..

You have this in your custom CSS:

.main-navigation{background-color:#595959}
