Hyperlinks are hidden on my side menu

    Hello.

    I’ve been struggling with this problem for the past days, others I have talked to were confident the problem could be cleared with settings however.

    I have tried changing text colours, background colours, removing the side menu completely and redoing it from scratch, but my hyperlinks simply remain hidden unless hovered over by mouse. A smaller problem, annoying albeit not crippling, is that hyperlinks in text, on my products linking to design studios, also do not appear as hyperlinks. Customers can therefor mistake them as plaintext and miss out that there’s more that might interest them.

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

  • Hello @baphometse

    This seems to be caused by some custom CSS code that you probably added in the Customizer > Additional CSS:

    a:where(:not(.wp-element-button)) {
    color: var(--wp--preset--color--primary);
    text-decoration: underline;
}

    Could you check if you have that CSS code in the Customizer? Maybe you want to remove it?

    If that’s not the case, you can customize the Links colors for each widget/block from the sidebar in the Appearance > Widgets page: https://d.pr/i/fe2DhG

    Thank you for your kind reply, Pavel. Unfortunately I cannot see that code in the CSS, if I am infact in the right spot to check for it (pictured below). It goes 2 years back.

    Below is a small side-by-side screenshot picture that I think maybe illustrates my problem:

    It’s possible that this is caused by some optimization like “Combine/Minify CSS” from the LiteSpeed Cache plugin that you use.

    Try adding this CSS code in the Customizer > Additional CSS:

    .side-nav__scrollable-container a { color: #fff; }

    Unfortunately I added LiteSpeed Cache after the issues with the links arose, although your solution seems to have worked! Thank you so much, Pavel. I am very grateful that you took time out of your day to help me with this (for me) huge problem. I wish you well.
