Change font color for hyperlinks without changing header text?

    Hey guys,

    For reference, the website I’m working on is haleyeahcontent.com. I’m using the Argent theme.

    I’m trying to change the color of the text in hyperlinks (across the entire site) without changing the color of the header text. The header text is a link that leads back to the home page itself, and apparently this is a setting that can’t be changed.

    The default color for hyperlink text is difficult to recognize as a hyperlink that should be clicked on. I want to change it to something more obvious.

    I found some CSS codes for changing the hyperlink properties (color, underline, etc) but when applied across the site, they also changed the header text. I don’t know how to leave the header text as it is, and still change the color of all other hyperlinks on site.

    How can I solve this?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

  • Howdy –

    I’m happy to work on this. I see that the links are gray and not easy to pick up. I agree. Do you know what color you want to use for the general links? and for the headers?

    Hi Liz, thanks for the help!

    Here’s what I’m aiming for:

    All hyperlinks in text body on all pages = blue, blue and underlined when hovered over with cursor, and purple when already visited.

    The same for the H3 text at the bottom of home page (“Check out some of my services here”).

    The header text can remain as it is, and so can the links in the navigation bar up top.

    Hopefully that’s not a lot of trouble?

    Hi there,

    Do you still need help with this? This CSS should do the trick:

    #content a:link {
color: blue;
}
#content a:visited {
color: purple;
}
#content a:hover {
color: blue;
border-color: blue;
}
