How to change navbar hover color on bootstrap 4?

Question

I need to change my navbar hover color to something else. I managed to change navbar text color on my own, but I couldn\'t find the correct one to change in inspect element

Answer 1

Bootstrap has default color for < a> tag. So by using !important you over write the color

Answer 2

<style type="text/css">


    html,
    body {
      overflow-x: hidden;
    }

.navbar-light .navbar-brand {
    color: #FFFFFF;
}

.navbar-light .navbar-nav .active>.nav-link, .navbar-light .navbar-nav .nav-link.active, .navbar-light .navbar-nav .nav-link.show, .navbar-light .navbar-nav .show>.nav-link {
    color: #FFFFFF;
}

.navbar-light .navbar-nav .nav-link {
    color: #FFFFFF;
}

.navbar-light .navbar-nav .nav-link:focus, .navbar-light .navbar-nav .nav-link:hover {
    color: #ccc !important;
}
}
</style>

and html :

<nav class="navbar-expand-sm navbar-expand-md navbar-expand-lg navbar navbar-light" style="background-color: #0275D8;">
  <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Navbar</a>
  <button class="navbar-toggler" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbarNavDropdown" aria-controls="navbarNavDropdown" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
    <span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
  </button>
  <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarNavDropdown">
    <ul class="navbar-nav">
      <li class="nav-item active">
        <a class="nav-link" href="#">Home <span class="sr-only">(current)</span></a>
      </li>
      <li class="nav-item">

      </li>
      <li class="nav-item">
