How to Change the Profile Dropdown Username Text Color

Introduction

BuddyBoss doesn’t offer a built-in option to change the Profile Dropdown Username Color. However, you can easily customize it by adding a small CSS snippet through Theme Options. This guide walks you step-by-step on how to update your username text color in the profile dropdown.

Custom Workaround

  1. In your WordPress admin, go to BuddyBoss > Theme Options.
  2. Under Custom Codes, toggle Enable CSS to On.
  3. Paste the following CSS:
.bb-template-v2 .site-header .user-wrap.menu-item-has-children .user-link .user-name {

  color: red;

}

  1. Click Save Changes.

Note: Any custom code is considered “custom work.” You may review our Support Policy for more details.

Troubleshooting and FAQs

Q: The username color didn’t change, what should I check?

A:

  • Clear any site cache, caching plugin, or CDN cache.
  • Make sure the CSS was pasted exactly as shown.
  • Confirm that Enable CSS was turned on before saving.

Q: Can I use a different color instead of red?

A: Yes. Replace red with any valid CSS color value, such as a hex code, RGB, or named color:

color: #1e73be;

Q: Will this affect other text in the header?

A: No. This CSS targets only the username text inside the Profile dropdown.

Q: Who can I contact for further assistance?

A: Submit a support ticket through your BuddyBoss account dashboard for personalized support.
