How can I adjust navigation dropdown menu opacity in Broadcast theme?

Topic summary

A user seeks help adjusting the background opacity of navigation dropdown menus in Shopify’s Broadcast theme.

Proposed Solutions:

Two respondents provided similar CSS-based fixes:

  • Both suggest adding custom CSS code to the assets/theme.css file at the bottom
  • The code targets dropdown menu hover states using selectors like .sliderow:hover .sliderow__title
  • Background color values are specified with !important flags to override existing styles
  • One solution uses #ffffff7c (white with transparency), the other uses #3c3c3c (dark gray)

Implementation Path:

  1. Navigate to Online Store → Theme → Edit code
  2. Open Assets → theme.css
  3. Add the provided CSS snippet at the file’s end

Please add the following CSS code to your assets/theme.css bottom of the file.

@media (hover: hover){
.sliderow:hover .sliderow__title {
    background: #ffffffc7 !important;
}
}

Thanks!
