Hello,

You should be able to change the menu font directly through the Highlight Font in the Template Manager. The Highlight Font will target the main menu, search fields, titles and a few other elements. The default highlight font for the menus is specified as Raleway.

Make sure when you change the font in the Template Manager your changes are being applied. If they aren't make sure the vertex.json file is writable and try a different browser to see if the changes take effect.

Is it possible to make the font size bigger on the Main Menu?  I have changed the font to Arial, but it still looks compressed to me, and I would like the text to be a lot bigger than it is.  More like the size of the font in the accordian menu.

Also, can I make the text in the Top Menu a different colour?  Because I have changed the background image to a dark colour, the Top Menu now disappears unless on hover when it turns into the highlight2 colour.

Hello,

1) You can change the font of the main menu by adding this to the custom.css and adjusting the value to your liking:

#s5_nav li {
font-size: 1.2em;}


2) You can change the color similarly like this:

#s5_nav li a {
color: #ff0000 !important;}

That worked for changing the font size and colour on the Top Menu, but I am wanting to change the font size on the Main Menu.

Hello,

That was the main menu I was targetting. The other menu I see on your site would use the following element code.

#s5_pos_top_menu
