Customized link color not showing

They there,

I was just looking at your site.

All of the links in the content are red. Once you visit them links they then show as grey, you can change that like so:

#content a:visited, #content a:hover {color:#bf0600}

This will change the visited links and the on hover state to red so they remain constant which I think is what you want?

There is a chance that the theme has a CSS field in the options, if not then you can make a child theme:

Or you can instead use a plugin if you like:

Remember that with CSS the last instance called is the one that takes priority, unless of course you’ve used !important elsewhere.

Have a fantastic day! ??

Thanks very much for your reply. I guess that means that even though they look grey and black to me, other people see them as they should appear. Even when I log out, I don’t see what you do, though. I have another problem like that as well: people tell me that my headers read correctly, but I only ever see the top half of the font, and the bottom of the letters are invisible to me.

Is there any way then to address the fact that I don’t see the same version of the site the reader sees, even when I’m logged out?

Hey again.

I guess that means that even though they look grey and black to me, other people see them as they should appear. Even when I log out, I don’t see what you do, though.

A link has a colour, then a visit link can have another colour, and when hovering this too can have a colour.

You see the grey on your site when you’ve visited the link.

You see the black when you hover on a link.

Other viewers will see this also, you see more grey links as you probably visited them all. If you wish to change those colours then you can use the CSS I mentioned before.

I have another problem like that as well: people tell me that my headers read correctly, but I only ever see the top half of the font, and the bottom of the letters are invisible to me.

What browser, version and OS?

Can you also show me a screenshot please?

Take care.

Hi. Thanks so much for your response, and apologies that mine is belated. My mind didn’t register what it meant for a link to be “visited,” but now I understand. Thanks.

As for the other issue of not seeing the full header font, I’m using Firefox 31.0 on Windows 7. In the screenshot, you will see that the headers in the sidebar are affected as well. Please let me know how or where to send it to you.

Thanks!

Hey again.

I didn’t see any screenshot, can you provide a link so I can please? ??

I don’t have a Windows computer, I’m going to ask my colleague to drop in and take a look to see if she can see the issue occurring on your site.

Cheers.

Hi Mich, I’m also not seeing what you’re describing at all.

Can you try reattaching a screen shot? Thank you!

Can you please tell me how to attach a screen shot or where I should send it? Thanks.

You could upload it to your host and paste a link here.

You could use a free image hosting service like tinypic:

If on Mac you can Monosnap:

Or Skitch:

Or there is a browser extension which I believe works on other OS systems as well. Chrome, Firefox or Safari:

Or if you prefer another you may take a peek in Google, there are a few out there. These are all ones I’ve tried and enjoy ??

Have a great day!

Ok, you can now view the screenshot of the missing bottom half of my headers at https://www.wetipthebalance.org/screenshot . It’s a little bit difficult to see, but as mentioned above, the headers in the sidebar are affected as well.

Thank you!

Hey there,

I’ve asked a number of guys (5) to test this for me, no one is getting this on Windows with any of the main browsers.

I note you’re logged in, does this happen when logged out too? Does it happen in other browsers?

I’m reluctant to make suggestions because I can’t see what’s causing it and don’t want to adversely affect any other areas of your site.

Take care.

Yes, it seems that everyone sees the site fine. Thanks so much for your time! take care.
