Changing link colors in posts?

1 Jun 06, 2007 05:00    

My b2evolution Version: Not Entered

Hi,

I am using b2evo with the natural pink skin. My blog is:

www.maryspad.com

When I write posts and put links, the linked text is almost the same color as the text itself, and so the text to be clicked doesn't stand out. I want to change this so that the text to be clicked stands out, by changing the color maybe to blue.

I looked for it in the skin's css file but it wasn't there, so I went to the main css file but I couldn't find which value to change. I am a novice in css and php but so far I haven't had any disasters changing anything :D

Where do I find the attribute to change this and which attribute is it?

thanks

In your style sheet (styles.css) find something that looks like this, then make it be this: 

a,
a:visited {
	color: #0000FF;
	text-decoration:none;
}

Well, it works well in terms of the posts, so that when someone is reading the post they can see clearly where to click.

What I am wondering now is if I have too many colors on the page? Is there any way to change the color of links to blue only inside the posts and not on the whole page?

If no, do you have any other suggestions?

That worked well . Thank you for the code :D

I think I need to play with the colors a little more until I find a combination that works for me, but at least I know what to do and where to change things. Thanks for the tips, I'm learning a lot about css just by playing around with this! :)
