    Hi everyone – just did the install and even though I tried searching here – I still have a few basic questions. I am sure they have been asked 100 times and I apologize for not being able to figure out how to tickle the search engine into meaningful info. 🙂

    Q1. The top bar text on our site (image here: http://ibb.co/jGpABb ) shows grey text. The other lwft & right sections have white text which is perfect. Where do I adjust/change this pls?

    Q2. I have a sidebar widget for recent blog posts. We want to add a divider line between each post listed.

    TOPIC ABC
    ————
    TOPIC DEF
    ————

    etc…

    Anyway to add that (a solid one, not dotted like I can show here) line between them?

    Thank you in advance,

    Karma

    Hello,

    Thanks for the topic. Hope you are having a nice day.

    1. Please try to add this code in Theme Options > Custom css:

    .top-bar .topbar-widget p {
        color: white;
    }

    2.

    .widget_recent_entries li {
        border-bottom: 1px solid #000000;
        padding-top: 10px;
    }

    Let us know if you need any further assistance.

    Regards

    Hi Rose,

    Thank you for such a helpful answer!

    I have one more if you don’t mind?

    I am trying to add a footer menu (with the info stuff normally in footers) and I need it to be horizontal but it only displays as one long ugly vertical.

    I am using a widget to add that menu.

    Is there a better way? One that actually allows horizontal?

    Thank you again!

    Hello,

    You’re welcome!
    Do you mean this menu http://prntscr.com/htrxo9 ? Is your problem solved?
    If not, please give me screenshot for better understanding. Also, provide temporary wp-admin access in Private Content.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Rose,

    I added those using the text widget and making links to pages by hand. That isn’t a navigation menu, it’s a work around.

    I am just asking how to make navigation horizontal?

    thank you!! 🙂

    Hello,

    Oh I see, the widget does not have options to display menu horizontal, but you may use custom css code, for example:

    footer .widget_nav_menu li, footer .widget_nav_menu li{
      display: inline-block !important;
      width: auto !important;
      border: none;
    }
    footer .widget_nav_menu li .sub-menu, footer .widget_nav_menu li .sub-menu{
      display: none;
    }

    Hi Rose. Happy New Year to you!

    I just tried your css but the menu didn’t change at all. (added css, added navigation widget to footer, cleared cache)

    I really wish the documentation went a little deeper so we didn’t have to try searching these forums and bothering you for answers.

    Thanks anyway,

    Happy new year to you, too 🙂

    I do not see the widget on your site. Please add this in the footer, so I could inspect it via console and give you appropriate css code.
    Thanks for the notice, I’ve sent request to our developers and hope that possibility to change menu type (via widget settings) will be added in one of next theme update to prevent using custom css for this. Follow our changelog.

    Ok. It’s added back to the footer @ karmaword.com

    I named it ‘test widget’ so people will ignore how odd it looks. lol

    Thanks again Rose,

    Please try:

    .footer-top .menu-info-container li {
      display: inline-block !important;
      width: auto !important;
      border: none;
      margin-right: 15px;
    }

    That worked perfectly. May I ask how did you center yours? (I see it centered in your screenshot)

    Thank you for the help. It’s great to have that navigation horizontal finally! 🙂

    You’re welcome!
    On the screenshot, it wasn’t centered, so to give you code I need to check the widget one more time, it seems you removed this menu.
    Also, you may create footer as static block https://www.8theme.com/demo/docs/woopress/#!/0_footer (To get VC editor in the static blocks go to Visual Composer > Role Manager > Post Types > Custom > tick needed elements) in this case, you will be able to use “Etheme Main Menu” element that display menu like http://prntscr.com/hv2hnn without using additional css code.
