Remember to change the css location option in the settings page for this plugin. Or edit directly: wp-content/plugins/superslider-menu/plugin-data/superslider/ssMenu/custom.css. Alternatively, you can copy those rules into your WordPress themes, style file. Then remember to change the css location option in the settings page for this plugin. = The stylesheet doesn't seem to be having any effect? = Check this url in your browser: http://yourblogaddress/wp-content/plugins/superslider-menu/plugin-data/superslider/ssMenu/custom.css If you don't see a plaintext file with css style rules, there may be something wrong with your .htaccess file (mod_rewrite).
