In Kalium is there a way to set link styling without using Additional CSS? I'd like to change the color of the Header Text to something other than the link style, again is there a way to do this without using Additional CSS? Also is there a way to position breadcrumbs below menu instead of above menu?
Thank you, that's helpful. I would like to change the color of the Site Brand that shows up to the left of the menu in the menu bar, is there a setting somewhere specific to that? Thanks!
As I said before, the links from the whole site will get the link color from Theme Styling under Theme Options and apply to most of the places where there are links. If you want to change only the logo add this CSS to Custom CSS:
I'm having trouble propagating a change to the header and footer. If I make a change to the color of an active Sticky Header, for example, even if I clear my cache, the change doesn't show up on all pages. If I do a quick edit on a single page and change the template to any template, suddenly the header change shows up on most, but not all, pages. How do I force a change to the theme header/footer to implement on all pages?
Also, I use Elementor Pro, so many of my pages have template set to "Elementor Full Width", is that any problem? If I change the template to "Theme" will that interfere with the Elementor editing/formatting? Thanks!
1. Are you trying to change the color through CSS or through theme options, the reason why changes do not show immediately in your site are always cache related so all you have to do is clear the cache regularly and do a hard refresh with CMD + R (macOS) and CTRL + F5 (Windows)
2. We recommend using the Default template of the theme so there will be no need to change the template.
Thank you so much! I found and disabled lightspeed cache that was keeping my changes from showing up right away.
I have more questions...OK to keep using this thread or would you prefer I opened a new ticket for different kinds of questions?
A.) Can you help me understand why the sticky menu, which I've set to bright red to test, shows up bright red on most of my menus but shows up as a greyish pink on my Search page? (https://test1.kurtmeyer.com/search/) I switched to Default Template as the template, and have changed colors so I know it is not a caching or template issue.
B.) I have changed the font and set selectors for heads, paragraph, label, and input. On the Contact form I see that I still need to add textarea to the selectors, I wondered if there is a way to specify a catch-all tag that would cover any other html tags that I'm not thinking of or am not spotting now, or that might get used later, so that all text will always use my chosen font?
C.) I would like to add a horizontal menu next to the social network menu in the footer. I know I could put my menu in the footer widget area, but would prefer to have it all on one line, is there any way to do this? I see I can add one item using the Custom Link in social media, but that only gives me one link, and it also is constrained to match the Instagram setting of opening in a new tab. Any way to instead add an actual menu here or multiple custom links with different new-tab behavior?
[EDIT]
Never mind about A.), I figured out it has to do with the sticky header animation.
B. There is no way to group all the items and change them at once, if you want to change the font for the whole site you can only use the body, p selector and it will work throughout all your website but for extra customizations it won't work.
C. Adding a menu is not possible to the bottom footer except the place which is meant for Widgets, but I found a plugin which could help you achieve what you want. By installing this plugin it seems that it turns out menus into shortcodes which then you can use in the footer area and they will show as links:

Hi Kurt,
1. You can use the white, black and the link color for menu color. Link color can be set here:
(view large version)
2. To position the breadcrumbs elsewhere please enable them under Laborator > Theme Options > Other Settings > Breadcrumbs:
(view large version)
