Topic: Primary button : background color on hover ?!

Jul Neel free asked 6 years ago


Hi everyone ! On the navbar, I created a primary-button. This button's background has (like I would expect) the primary color I set in the bootstrap variables.scss file. But on hover, it has a blue color... I don't know if it's a bug or if I misunderstood something...

Josip accurately described why this would work - thanks Josip. In addition, the design button is compatible with Material Design and has a wave effect. Regards

Because of need to change the default value for :hover status of button in mdb.css

.btn-primary {
  background: #4285F4; }
  .btn-primary:hover, .btn-primary:focus, .btn-primary:active {
    background-color: #5a95f5 !important; }
  .btn-primary.active {
    background-color: #0b51c5 !important; }
You have in SASS _buttons.scss:

.btn-primary {
    background: $primary-color;
    &:hover,
    &:focus,
    &:active {
        background-color: lighten( $primary-color, 5%)!important;
    }
    &.active {
        background-color: darken( $primary-color, 20%)!important;
        @extend .z-depth-1-half;
    }
}
The first variable in _variables.scss ($primary-color) can be changed in desired color and it will work

That's what I've done... But I wonder why "primary-btn" pick the "brand-primary" color in normal state and pick this blue color on :hover...

The code you provided is correct. If you want other color when button is hover, try this code:
.btn-primary:hover {
    background-color: red !important;
}
