Is $navbar-default-bg used anywhere? I changed its value and I don't see any change in navbar background color.

Also, I did 

$ grep -nr "navbar-default-bg" .
./sass/_bootstrap-variables.scss:342:$navbar-default-bg:                #ff0000;
./sass/_bootstrap-variables.scss:343:// $navbar-default-border:            darken($navbar-default-bg, 6.5%)
./sass/_bootstrap-variables.scss:350:// $navbar-default-link-active-bg:            darken($navbar-default-bg, 6.5%)

So, where is this variable used? Or how can I change the navbar bg color?

My file structure is:

  • In variables.less it's found on line 353. So I guess the bootstrap-variables.scss file – Christina Oct 16 '14 at 16:23
  • You're searching in the wrong location. Of course it won't be found anywhere in your project directory because that's not where the Bootstrap library files are located. – cimmanon Oct 17 '14 at 00:41

In pure bootstrap, those variables ($navbar-default-bg, $navbar-default-border, $navbar-default-link-active-bg) are used in the navbar.less file to style the default navbar.

If you change it in your _bootstrap-variables.scss file, that should update it, assuming you are pulling the rest of Bootstrap's styles in somewhere.

  • Without a code sample showing where you pull in the Bootstrap styles, I can't really help any further. Are you using a SASS port of Bootstrap? – ala8727 Oct 17 '14 at 14:01
