Unwanted hover effect on normal text

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

Hi
Hope you can find me a fix for this one How can I remove the hover effect on normal text in the sidebar on the Gazetta template? All text hovers as though it's a hyperlink by default for some reason. I'm working locally on Wamp but your demo does the same here:
demo.joomlabamboo.com/index.php?theme=aug15
If you go to an inner page such as features / a beautiful interface, the author description flashes even though it's not a link. In my case I have paragraphs of information that I just want to read as normal text.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Janice,

Yes that looks like it may be a bug

can you try adding

.sidebar *:hover, .sidebar .nav-header:hover, .sidebar .zen-menu-heading:hover, .sidebar .zen-menu-caption:hover {
color: inherit;
}

Cheers

You would need to add the style to the customisation option you are using

docs.joomlabamboo.com/zen-grid-framework-4/theme/customisation

using the custom.css is the easiest

Hi Paul
Thanks. The text still hovers but on hover the text is now black instead of orange.

Yes that wasn't a good suggestion - will ask a developer how best to handle this

I could change the cursor via css but think there is a better solution

Thanks Paul I'd appreciate that. As an update I found that the earlier problem I had with the module h3 title background color disappearing in the aside position was replicated in my local installation when I upgraded to Zen Tools 114 from your quick install package just as it did on the live site. version 115 didn't fix it. No admin tools, no site off line, no issue with server limits. I corrected it with a custom css rule:
#aside .zt-col{
background: #e74c3c ;
}
Not sure that it's the best way but thought it may be useful as a pointer at least if anyone else encounters it.
Thanks for your help on this one, as always. Don't you get time off to sleep over there?

Sorry to hear that Paul. Hope it's not too serious? They're a worry. I've a Lancashire Heeler at home in the UK at present. I'm just making arrangements to fly her over to NZ. - yes, that's late! - and thank you again for your time.

No not serious - they have been eating food they shouldn't

They are all rescues so can eat too much if they can get away with it

My 4 all came from Spain so all have pet passports :)

I will check with the developers as soon as I can

Not sure if it helps and I haven't tried the module in all template positions but it doesn't happen in the below content position but does in both sidebar1 and sidebar2 positions

Hi Janice,

Yes its a sidebar style that is the problem
There is a general all * style which I think we need to remove but need to check

Hi Janice,

We have an updated version nearly ready to be released

I can attach the zip so you can extract the required files
I can extract them for you and link to the files together with instructions
You can create a ticket on our support system and we do it for you
Or alternatively wait for the updated template to be released in the next day or two and then install as normal

Cheers

Fantastic Paul, Zip file is fine if you can just tell me which files to replace. I'm working on Mamp and Wamp so that's the best way I think.
Thank you

Actually I can't upload the zip given upload limits

so

I've attached the two file less files to go in the gazetta template folder

less/modules.less
less/styles.less

I'll try that again

Please take a backup of the site first

After the files have been added you need to save/compress less to css in the template admin panel

Cheers
Paul
