nav bar and dropdown menu colour change

Hiya!
so i’m changing the nav bar to white, but the font is staying white too (i’ve attached a screenshot for you to see) i followed the directions on a previous thread
(nav.navbar.navbar-default .navbar-nav > li > a {
color: #000;
}
nav.navbar.navbar-default {
background-color: transparent;
})
but see no way to change the font colour, i’ve tried it in theme options but must be doing the wrong code?

also i would like to change the dropdown menu colour from purple, what do you recommend? (screenshot also attached)
Thanks so much in advance!

Hi @rgbargy,

I hope you are well today and thank you for your question.

Please remove any CSS code that you have added to style the header navigation menu and then try changing the color of it using theme options on the following path.

Admin Area -> Appearance -> Theme Options -> Header

Changing the color from the above theme option is working fine for me using latest version of Unite theme so please let me know how it works for you.

Best Regards,
Movin
