Hi,

I have the menu links white and the the word search within the search bar is also white but fainter. I would like to make this appear the same as the regular menu items. I have tried increasing the font-weight but that resulted in the font-weight of the regular menu items increasing too.

Can anyone help?

You can try this custom CSS:

.menu-main-search form input.s {
    font-weight: bold;
}

This will also make the searched text bold as the placeholder inherits its styling from the input styling (and doesn’t have separate styling capabilities).

Thanks for that Zed.

It certainly made the text bolder but not exactly like I want. I really just want the word “search” to look the same as the menu items. According to the CSS it is already white there must be something else fading the color. I changed all reference to opacity from 0.5 to 1.0 but that made no difference.

Any other suggestions?

Placeholders are always rendered slightly faded out (even when using the same color as the input text). This is default browser behaviour (some browsers don’t even accept a color styling for the placeholder).
