Many thanks!
I tried “.navbar a” and it didn’t work, but it worked when I added
"!important", so I figured there must be Bootstrap rules that are a lot more
specific so they’re being used. So I removed the “!important” and tried
“.navbar ul.navbar-nav li a” and that seemed to work for most of it, and
“.navbar a.navbar-brand” for the “Brand.” It looks like I have a lot more
selectors to find and use, but at least now I think I know how to proceed.
Would there be a disadvantage to just using the
.navbar a {
color:white !important;
}
though? Sure would be easy.
Thanks again!
