| Stan 01/18/2020 17:14 | Hi Team, Amazing Product! How do I set the category colors for the horizontal menu? |
| Raphael 01/21/2020 12:18 | Hello Stan, we have updated the MegaMenu to have an option available to set each category title color. Also individual site based horizontal menus are available now! Please update your current installed version with the new package from this site. If the options should not be available, please send us your settings.js file located in: rootSitestyle libraryBitalusExtensionsMegaMenusettings.js We would modify your configuration file to have these options available. |
