Custom CSS is a powerful tool that allows you to take your Wix website's design to the next level. You can create personalized styles and effects that go beyond the built-in options. Let's start by generating a CSS code snippet to change the text color on hover with ease in and out. Then, we'll walk through the step-by-step process of integrating this code into Wix Studio and creating new classes for dynamic styling.
/*This code changes the text color of an element on hover with a smooth transition*/
.element-class{
color: initial;/*Set the initial text color*/
transition: color 0.3s ease-in-out;/*Add a smooth transition effect*/
}
.element-class:hover{
color:#FFA500;/*Change text color on hover*/
}
Custom CSS empowers you to create unique designs that reflect your brand's identity. It offers the flexibility to tweak styles, animations, and effects beyond the standard Wix settings.
Use the provided CSS code snippet to change text color on hover. You can modify the color codes and transition duration to suit your preferences.
Log in to your Wix account.
Open your website in Wix Studio.
In the left sidebar, click on "Design" and then "Custom CSS."
In the Custom CSS editor, paste the generated CSS code.
Click the "Apply" button to save your changes.
In the Custom CSS editor, you can create new classes by defining a class selector. For example:
.custom-class{
/*CSS properties*/
}
Go back to your Wix Studio website editor.
Select the element you want to style.
In the right panel, click on "Advanced" > "Add a new class."
Enter the name of the class you created (e.g., "custom-class") and press "Enter."
With the class applied to an element, you can customize its appearance in the Custom CSS editor. For instance, you can change background colors, fonts, margins, and more.
The beauty of custom CSS is the ability to experiment. Try adjusting various properties, test different animations, and refine your design iteratively.
By following these steps, you'll be able to integrate custom CSS into Wix Studio and create visually captivating websites. Remember, practice and experimentation are key to refining your design skills. Have fun exploring the world of custom styling!
