How to change the 'hover' colour

  • Hi,
    I’d like to change the colour for text when my cursor is hovering over a linked item. Right now it turns white, and it makes the text invisible. Where can I do this?

    Thanks,

  • Can you be more specific, WordPress version, name of the theme used, and the type of text in question?

    If it’s a WordPress theme, such as twenty-fourteen, you change the hover color in the child theme:

    WordPress version 3.5. The theme used is one that was created for the website. The text could be anywhere, a Title, or text in the blog part. Anything that I hyperlink to another page.

    Here is the website: https://www.michellewillis.ca

    The link colors at your website are in CSS file, style.css?; theme name is michelle-theme. The actual link color schema starts on line # 385:

    a:link    {
  /* Applies to all unvisited links */
  text-decoration:  none;
  color: #ffffff;
  } 

a.current   {
  /* Applies to links currently open */
  text-decoration:  none;
  color: #000;
  } 

a:visited {
  /* Applies to all visited links */
 text-decoration:  none;
  color: #ffffff;
  } 

a:hover   {
  /* Applies to links under the pointer */
  text-decoration:  none;
  color: #000
  }
a:active  {
  /* Applies to activated links */
  text-decoration:  none;
  color: #000
  }

    Try different colors to replace the white one…
