Hello,

When I open ‘Static Blocks’ Visual composer isn’t shown or available? so I can’t create a footer. I have gone to Visual Composer general settings but am unsure of what to do?

Below is a link showing there is no visual composer option:

Hello,

Go to WP admin panel > Visual Composer > Role Manager > Post Types > select “Custom” and tick “static block”.

Best regards,
Jack Richardson.

Thank you Jack this worked!

I have another issue:

How do you change the colour of the menu text. As you can see I have a grey highlight for the page I am on such as ‘HOME’. The ‘ABOUT’ text is in black – I need to change this colour to something legible and lighter and a lighter grey which works on both headers – the main darker header and header which appears when you scroll down on the home page. Where do I go to change this header information?

Two links below:

Example on main header on all pages:

Example of header when I scroll down on the home page:

Hope to hear from you soon.
Thank you.

Hello,

Please use this code in Theme Options > Custom CSS > Global Custom CSS:
```
.menu > li > a {
  color: #000 !important;
}
.menu > li.current-menu-item > a, .menu > li.current_page_ancestor > a {
    color: #cda85c !important;
}
```
Change color values to yours.

Regards,
Eva Kemp.

Hi Jack,

I have activated visual composer in static blocks as suggested but when I create a new static block and go to ‘Frontend Editor’ it can’t connect and gets stuck. Can this issue be resolved??
I really need to create a new footer for my site.

Thank you.

Hello,

Try to use backend editor for VC in Static Blocks.

As you can see in the code arrows > were changed http://storage9.static.itmages.com/i/16/0512/h_1463061552_4195637_2c9a02ea0a.jpeg , remove those symbols and replace them with normal arrows > as shown in this code:
```
.menu > li > a {
  color: #000 !important;
}
.menu > li.current-menu-item > a, .menu > li.current_page_ancestor > a {
    color: #cda85c !important;
}
```
Best regards,
Jack Richardson.
