I am trying to customize the hover effect size on my navigation bar in Bootstrap 4. I want to reduce the background size of the menu links when hovered over. I attempted a method from this source: How do i change the width of the hover in bs4 , but it did not work for me.
Below is my HTML code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, height=device-height, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0">

<body>
<div id="nav-menu">
<nav id="main-nav" class="navbar navbar-expand-md fixed-top">
<div class="container">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav mx-auto">
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">Home</a>
</li>

<a class="nav-link" href="#">About</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">Contact</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</nav>
</div>
<div class="container-fluid" id="top-main">
<div id="top_text">
<h1>Cuppela Made With Sugar</h1>
<p>Delicious Homemade Cakes</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<h2>Test</h2>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Here is my CSS style code:
body{
margin: 0px;
}
li a:hover {
background-color: #ff9900;
border-radius: 10px;
}
li a{
color: white !important;
}
#top-main{
background-image: url(../images/cake_six_two.jpg);
height: 100vh;
}
#nav-menu{
font-size: x-large;
position: relative;
}
#top_text{
color: white;
text-align: center;
position: relative;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
/* bring your own prefixes */
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
}
h1{
font-size: 500%;
}
p{
font-size: x-large;
}
h2{
text-align: center;
}
