To change the color of the navigation links in Webflow, you can follow these steps:

  1. Select the navigation element: In the Webflow Designer, locate the navigation component that contains the links you want to change the color of. It might be a Navbar or a Symbol.

  2. Open the style panel: With the navigation element selected, click on the "Styles" tab on the right-hand side of the Webflow Designer. This will open the Style panel where you can customize various aspects of the selected element.

  3. Customize the link color: Within the Style panel, navigate to the "Text" section. Here, you will find options for customizing the font properties of the links, including the link color. To change the color, click on the color swatch next to the "Link" option. A color picker will pop up, allowing you to choose a new color. You can either manually enter a specific color value or use the color picker interface to select a color.

  4. Update the link states: Webflow allows you to style different states of the links, such as hover, visited, and active states. To customize these states, click on the arrows next to the "Link" option within the Text section. This will expand a dropdown menu with options for different link states. By selecting each state, you can apply specific styling and color changes.

  5. Preview and publish: Once you are satisfied with the color changes, preview your website to see how the navigation links look. You can do this by clicking the eye icon at the top of the Designer. If the changes look good, publish your site to make the color changes live.

By following these steps, you should be able to easily change the color of the navigation links in Webflow.
