Changing Colours in Alex King’s Dots Template

  • Hi,
    I have managed to change most of the colours to what I want in the css file, but a couple of changes are eluuding me. I would like to change visited links to blue and links in the center content column to black. Can anyone tell me how to do this.
    Thanks.

  • .storycontent a {
    color: #000;
    }
    should do the center content.
    a:visited {
    color:#0000ff;
    }
    They work ?
    If not, a link to your site will let us see your css and we can get it right then ??

    How can you do this ???

    Hi all,
    Was wondering if there was any way for me to alter specific portions of the template, so that the colours of each of the three columns were different? Or is that pretty much a lost cause? The site link is https://www.venialsin.com.
    Thanks!

    @anon – by using the Web Developer bar in Firefox, we can not only easily see it, we can alter it ‘live’ in our browser. It means we can quickly help out, find issues, test what we suggest.
    It’s damned useful ??
    @taseerdc – Hi !
    If you want a 3 column layout, I’d suggest you take a look at Trident:
    https://www.atthe404.com/trident/
    It’s very easy to install (just replace both your index.php and wp-layout.css) and will give you much more flexibility. The Dots template is a ‘faux’ 3 column setup which while useful, doesn’t have the ability to alter column colours as you want.

    Podz, hey! I really like the look and feel of Dots, but maybe I’ll take up your suggestion of going after Trident. Any idea on how I could set that up to be edited in Dreamweaver?

    I have no idea – I don’t use DW (it’s too complicated), using only the online editor or Notepad++ for all wp editing. I can work Notepad++
    ??
    Hopefully someone will be along soon who can help.
