Animated Text and Icon Menu with jQuery Today we want to show you how to create a slick menu with a nice animation feature on hover. The idea is to make some elements slide out, change and animate the background color of the item and then slide the elements back in with a different color. View demoDownload source The inspiration for this menu comes from the website of the Pelican Miami Beach Hotel: The icons are taken from the incredible Noun Project that “collects, organizes and adds to the highly recognizable symbols that form the world’s visual language, so we may share them in a fun and meaningful way”. So, let’s get started! The Markup Our HTML will be an unordered list where each list item will contain an anchor element with the three elements inside that we’ll animate: The data-hovercolor will be used to set the color of the text on hover.

Now dedicated servers you pay twice as much for not as much. Control User Interface Upgrading WordPress Plugins

Summary of Roles Super Admin – somebody with access to the site network administration features and all other features. Upon installing WordPress, an Administrator account is automatically created.
