[Waiting for user confirmation] Navigation menu Hover
This is the technical support forum for WPML - the multilingual WordPress plugin.
Everyone can read, but only WPML clients can post here. WPML team is replying on the forum 6 days per week, 22 hours per day.
Elementor users - please update WPML to the latest version to maintain compatibility. More details here - https://wpml.org/changelog/2024/12/wpml-4-6-15-critical-update-for-elementor-sites/
Background of the issue:
I have set up a separate navigation menu just for the languages on my site under development. I am using Elementor to create a header for the entire site, which includes this language menu. I have configured the standard color to be black, and the hover and active color to be red.
Symptoms:
The hover effect for the language menu is not working as expected.
Questions:
How can I add a hover effect to the language menu using Elementor?
Why is the hover effect not working for the language menu?
2.- Please don't forget to create a full site backup and update the WPML plugins to the latest version in Plugins -> Add new -> Commercial tab
3.- Last but not least, increase the WP memory Limit. Minimum requirements are 128Mb: https://wpml.org/home/minimum-requirements/
You can add this to wp-config.php to increase WP memory:`
I have added this CSS:
.wpml-ls-menu-item {
color: #000000;
}
.wpml-ls-current-language {
color: #e40028;
}
But still it is not working.
I would like to have the standard color in black, the active language color in red (#e40028) and the hover color in red as well.
I have also set the memory limit to 256M and updated all plugins.
Any other suggestions?
I am off for the weekend now, would really appreciate your comment until monday!
Thanks a lot! BR Nicola
I want to take a closer look at the site configuration. I have set your next message private so you can securely share the access credentials to the site.
Please don't forget to create a full site backup before sharing the credentials.
Hi Carlos, thank you very much for your reply.
And this is the problem: I can not give you the access to the page as this is a highly secured multisite page of a large european company. I am not allowed to and do not have the rights to do so.
What else could we try?
I understand you can't share the access credentials to the live site but I can't find a solution without accessing the site. Could you create a staging site with a copy of the live site and share the credentials? Or could you create a new WordPress installation with the same theme and language switcher?
