Reset to default 0I just checked your website and found some helpful CSS for your site.
Find this line of CSS and change your color code, it will surely work.
For menu hover and focus ('Use this CSS in bedcentregrimsby.css')
.navbar-default .navbar-nav > li > a:focus, .navbar-default .navbar-nav > li > a:hover {
color: #a4cb9a;
}
Please feel free to quote. Thanks, Cheers..!!
In general it's not a good practice to style with !important
attribute in CSS. You should try to avoid it.
You will need to find with your browser inspector which CSS rules exist to color your link on hover.
You can find information about how CSS rules overwrite them selves and what rule get's specified in the end: https://developer.mozilla/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Specificity
E.g.: You already have a hover state style for the link which could override your white color style:
.navbar-nav a:hover, .dropdown-menu>li>a:hover {
color: #a4cb9a !important;
}
