Shopify themes, liquid, logos, and UX
Hi, how can I reduce and change the color of the "fade into white on hover" effect on Blog Posts? I would love to customize this effect to suit my website's colors. Where and how can it be done?
My website - www.verdin.la
Are these the blogs you are talking about?
Instructions
1. Go to 'Online Store' -> Theme -> Edit Code
2. Inside the assets folder locate the file 'base.css'
3. At the end of the file paste this code
4.
a.t4s-portfolio-thumb::before{
opacity: 0.5 !important; /* The lower the opacity the more transparent */
}
Hi @verdin_verdin,
Step 1: Go to Shopify Admin -> Online Store ->Theme -> Edit code
Step 2: Search file theme.liquid
Step 3: Insert this code above </head> tag:
<style>
.t4s-portfolio-thumb::before {
background: red !important;
}
</style>
I'm leaving the default red. You can adjust the color yourself.
Hope this can help you,

HI @verdin_verdin ,
If you would like to change the color of the hover effect to better match, You can use some custom CSS to achieve this.
I think along with changing the color of the hover effect, increasing the text size of the hover effect also would be helpful.
You can follow these steps to do that :
Step 1 : Open a css file from the shopify backend
Shopify Backend→ Sales Channel → Online Store→Three buttons near customize button→ Edit Code
Step 2: Add this code to one of these files: theme.css, global.css, theme.css.liquid or theme.liquid
.t4s-portfolio-thumb::before{
background-color:#f5f5dca6;
}
.t4s-portfolio-inner .t4s-post-title {
font-size: 20px;
}
If you are inserting in a .css file then you can directly insert this code, if it is the theme.liquid file make sure to add it to the bottom of the file and enclose it in a style tag as shown in the below screenshot:
You result will look like this :
If you would like a detailed customization, please feel free to contact us and set up a quick call to discuss the changes you would like to indroduct.
I hope this helps! If it does, please like it and mark it as a solution!

You can customize it by changing background color code in this code below, and then add it to Custom CSS in Online Store > Themes > Customize > Theme settings.
.template-blog .t4s-portfolio-thumb::before {
background: rgba(246, 246, 246, .9);
}
