link to map not recognized in CSS formatting

Add the following to your style.css:

#map-link a {
color: #fff;
}

Please look into creating a child theme, if you aren’t already.

Thank you…that worked. I had left off the “a” so it didn’t pick up the change.

Re using a child theme. I have read the documentation on using them earlier. I understand from what I’ve read that the purpose is to preserve and avoid altering a WP theme so the original parent theme can be updated more easily later. I am using a blank custom theme that was written in html code with CSS in a web design class last fall. We then started with a clean blank WP theme and placed sections of the code in the proper places using WP structure. Since I will not be updating with an existing WP theme but am only working with and editing my own code and CSS, is there another reason that i should still use child themes? I am still in a learning process so i would appreciate any input on this.
Thanks.

I suppose if you never plan on updating the theme, the only purpose it would serve is for organization / preserving the parent files in case you do something like cause a fatal error, you could just revert back to the parent.

ok… thank you, Craig. I appreciate your advice and it’s definitely worth considering. Thanks also for your quick reply. I’m sure i’ll have more questions to come as i progress.
