Editing Auto Nav background colour - Greek Yogurt Theme

Permalink
I have started to create a website for my business, and it was all going splendidly until I wanted to change the background colour in auto nav. It does not work by clicking on "design" and then "background." From searching the forum I understand this has something to do with the specific theme I have chosen (Greek Yogurt), and that I have to input something in CSS. I have never used CSS before and this is where I am completely lost. Is someone willing to give me step by step instructions that a complete noob can understand?

i.e., click design, then click css. Then type ____ in css id box, and ___ in css class name and ____ in additional css.

I think i will need a specific code for the background colour I will want - how do I find this code? Thanks in advance!

Can't you go Design -> CSS -> Additional css:

background-color: #197BBF !important;

Not too sure if the nav will override though.

Hi,
In Greek Yogurt, you'll find it much easier to modify the background color right from the block, instead of changing theme settings.
Just enter Edit mode > click on the Nav block > select 'Design" from near the bottom of the dropdown > then select the "Background" tab > click on the color selector > drag the color target to the color you want > click "OK" > Save
All done :)

PS: I did this on my demo sitehttp://c5samplesite.com/ before replying. You'll see I changed the Nav background to red using the Design method.
Please remember to clear your cache (both site and browser) if you are not seeing changes right away.

Hope this helps
