    Hi, thank you so much for this theme, I really like it!

    One of the last things Iam struggeling with, is changing color of the hover on links (not sure if Iam calling it correctly). When I put cursor on some link, it shows the original green color and I would like to change it for something else. Is it possible? Thank you for help. Dominik (sorry for my english).

  • Hi there,

    First of all, a quick suggestion: don’t edit the theme files directly, otherwise your changes will be overwritten whenever the theme is updated.

    An easy way to add custom CSS is to install the Jetpack plugin and activate the Custom CSS module. You’ll then add your custom CSS in the new stylesheet editor that’ll appear in your dashboard, under Appearance > Edit CSS.

    As alternatives, you could either install a standalone custom CSS plugin, or create a child theme.

    You can change the hover colour for links by adding the following CSS snippet to your custom CSS area or child theme:

    body a:hover {
  color: pink;
}

    If you only want to change the hover colour for post titles, you can use this instead:

    .post-header .post-title a:hover {
  color: pink;
}

    Hello,

    I have a problem with this too. Here is my website: https://deslivresetdesetoiles.com/.

    I did edit CSS in my child theme (other modifications works, it’s just this one which doesn’t work):

    body a:hover {
    color: #4a1c68;
    }

    So it should not be the original green color anymore. But it still is for some links. I mean, some hover links are now in the right color (ex : links in sidebar of a post) but some are green (ex : title of posts on the articles page and in post, links to categories and other links below posts).

    Can anyone help me please ?

    I have this same problem too…
