To fix the issue with the buttons not changing color when hovered after adding an animation to change the website's navbar to black on scroll in Webflow, follow these steps:

  1. Check the button's hover state: First, ensure that the button has a hover state defined. In Webflow, you can access the hover state by selecting the button and clicking on the "States" tab in the right-hand panel. If there is no hover state defined, create one.

  2. Check the button's color properties: Double-check the color properties of the button's hover state. Make sure that the hover state has a different color assigned to it. You can do this by selecting the button in the hover state and adjusting the color properties in the styles panel on the right.

  3. Check for conflicting CSS: If the button's hover state is correctly set up with a different color, the issue may be due to conflicting CSS. Sometimes, adding animations or interactions can override existing styles. Check if there are any conflicting style rules applied to the button that may be preventing the color change on hover. Remove or adjust any conflicting rules that could be interfering with the hover state.

  4. Use custom code: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, you can consider using custom code to override the hover behavior. Open the Custom Code section in Webflow and add CSS code that targets the specific button and defines the hover color. This code will take precedence over any conflicting styles.

<style>.button-class:hover {  color: #ffffff; /* Replace with the desired hover color */}</style>

Replace .button-class with the correct class name of your button and replace #ffffff with the desired hover color in hexadecimal or RGB format.

By following these steps, you should be able to fix the issue with the buttons not changing color when hovered after adding an animation to change the website's navbar to black on scroll in Webflow.
