@Helly1206 - If you feel like this shouldn't be here let me know and I'll edit the info out.

This is considered by some as "underhanded". But you CAN change the colors of home menu items and sub menu items (and others). Here is how you do it.

When you create a main menu item or sub menu item at a point in the creation you have the opportunity to NAME it. When that option arises is when you have the ability to change the color of the text of that item. Instead of just typing in the name surround it with this code:

[COLOR colorname]Item Name[/COLOR]

So, if you wanted the WEATHER item text to be pink you would do it like this for the name:

[COLOR pink]WEATHER[/COLOR]



HERE is a list of colors and be advised this little trick will turn off the unfocused color and if the menu item name does not appear you picked a color that does not work or spelled it wrong. If you use blue it will appear white.

UPPERCASE AND LOWER CASE MUST BE OBSERVED!! (Or it just won't work) i.e. your color must be lower case.

Aquamarine in my list is spelled wrong....

If you can not figure this out PM me and I'll try to help you understand it. Once you have done it it's not hard at all....

You can do that this way, but it is better to change the colors in the xml files. Then your system also changes color when switching theme or theme color.
