Archive results page links

  • Hey there,

    I’m making up an archive page, but the links are white, while the background of the page is also white.

    I tried to set the link-colors to red, but nothing changes.
    on my regular navigation, the links are white, cuzz they’re on a black block.

    When I add “!important” to the css-line for the links in the archive-results,
    the links in there are red (I just choose red to see if it works, then I’d change it to the correct color).
    The problem is that it’ll change -all- the links … also in my regular navigation …. Why is that?

    Ty !

  • Try using Firefox with the Firebug add-on for this kind of CSS troubleshooting. Or use whatever developer tool is available in your web browser.

    Css is basically a set of rules that tell the browser how to display html elements. When you add !important to a rule you essentially make it more important than other rules and it will override their specific rules.

    Lets say I had a rule like a.blue{color:blue;} then I write a rule that says a{color:red !important;} it will override my a.blue and make all my links red.

    Use firebug or the browser’s default element inspector to get the exact rule you want to change.

    yes, but it only appears in <section>, next to that, it’s every individual post with an invidivual id…

    Should I place a div in loop.php and modify it there, or perhaps in another php file? I’m not sure which php file contains the archive results.

    It’s the last thing that needs to be done, but I just can’t get it properly good.
