Seeking help to change the menu hover effect in the Shopify Prestige theme. Current hover styling applies across the navigation (shown in screenshot), but the goal is for only the mega menu to have the desired hover style seen on other Prestige stores.
Desired change: Restrict hover styling to the mega menu (mega menu = large dropdown navigation), matching examples from other stores.
Attempted approach: Looked for a theme setting to toggle this behavior but couldn’t find one.
Ask: Guidance or instructions to implement the hover effect only on the mega menu.
Assets: Two screenshots are central to understanding the current vs. desired hover behavior.
Status: No solution provided yet; discussion is open with no decisions or action items recorded.

but we would like only the mega menu looks like this , we found a lot of stores using prstige have this even we was thinking its setting but we couldnt find it
Apply the hover effect only to mega menus by using CSS in your CSS file
CSS example
/* Remove hover effect from all menu items */
.Header__MainNav .HorizontalList__Item > a:hover {
background: none;
}
/* Apply hover effect ONLY to mega menu items */
.Header__MainNav .HorizontalList__Item.has-mega-menu > a:hover {
background-color: #f5f5f5; /* adjust to match your design */
}
If your theme uses a slightly different class name try this:
Yeah, like @tim_1 said, you should be more precise.
I think that currently, your hover effect is the same as Robotime. On the first screenshot, from defult theme, I thought the difference is more space between line that shows on hover and space after the line.
You do not have sub-menu items so all are just simple links. You said “we would like only the mega menu looks like this” but I do not see that you have any mega menu( and you should have)
And also, Robotime have hover effect on both simple links and menu items with mega menu.
Would you like to share your issue in more details. As I see, in your site the requested hover effect is already applied. There is no difference between what you’re looking for and what you applied.
