Hey im having trouble getting the Home tab in the header to follow the color scheme for the other tabs. I feel like I am doing something incorrect or I have an editing problem somewhere in the section. My background for the header is transparent with white color tabs (except for HOME which is black), and when I hover over the header the background goes white and the tab titles go black, which is what I want. But the HOME tab is black when transparent background, and black when I hover. So basically I need to change the HOME tab to match the others. Ive attached screenshot. Ive also messed with the color schemes in every way I know possible and it doesnt seem to fix it. What am I doing wrong?
Topic summary
Home tab in the Blum theme header doesn’t follow the menu color behavior: with a transparent header, all tabs are white except HOME (black); on hover, other tabs switch to black on a white background, but HOME stays black. Screenshots provided are central to understanding the visual issue.
Recent actions:
- Store URL shared for review.
- Guidance given to add custom code in theme.liquid (above ). Result: HOME turned white, but it still doesn’t change color on hover like other tabs.
Current findings:
- A CSS rule forcing black text with !important appears to be applied to HOME (per screenshot). This override prevents hover/contrast behavior from taking effect.
Recommended next steps:
- Remove the !important from the black color declaration so hover styles can apply consistently.
- Avoid using !important on color rules to enable theme-controlled state changes.
Status: Not yet resolved. Awaiting confirmation after removing the !important override and re-testing hover behavior on the HOME tab.

Thanks for your help, That did change the home tab to white, however now when I hover over the tab the home stays white, while the others adjust to black(how I want them. ) Is there anything else I should adjust?
I guess what im seeing is that the home tab is always one color, while the other tabs contrast the background when hovered over. transparent background/white tabs, white background/black tabs. While the Home tab stays all black or all white for both .
Hi @MushaPN
You add some !important on the color black.
It hard to take out this one if mark !important. If you add this can you take it out? Dont add !importnat any of the color so we can change easily. Thanks!
