  • I replaced the following lines I had added under /* Main – Content – Post */ in the style.css file:

    .entry a{color:#9E6935 !important; text-decoration: none}
    .entry a:hover{color:#963 !important;text-decoration: underline }

    with the following lines:

    .entry a:link,
    .entry a:visited,
    .entry a:active {color:#87552F; text-decoration: none}
    .entry a:hover {color:#963;text-decoration: underline}

    The only adjustments I made were to change the color. The links whether visited, hovering over or not visited are still the same color as regular text. The best I can do at this point to alert a reader that this is a clickable link is to make the link text bold, but that really doesn’t stand out enough (as told to me by readers who can’t find a link I mention).

    Could I be placing the code in the wrong place?

    I tried adding the text above to my style.css file and it didn’t change anything. Do I need to replace any text with the code above or simply insert it into the style.css file? Maybe I placed it in the wrong area? I placed it directly under
    /* Main – Content – Post */

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Each blog would have different content and a different look. I’d like to avoid a seperate WP install though as it takes more to maintain and it’s just cleaner to have one install and run all blogs from that.

    Moshu, thank you for the quick response. I’m sorry that I wasn’t clear. I didn’t click thru to the FAQ that Michael pointed to because my blog and website are hosted at GoDaddy not at WordPress.com. So am I to understand that I could use GoDaddy’s “manage domains” to point visitors that type https://www.irishattic.com to https://www.kco1.net/blogs? If that is so I’m wondering why GoDaddy didn’t steer me to that solution when I called them about this. They told me I would have to set up an .htaccess page which so far I haven’t been able to get to work but that’s a subject for another post.

    And then my 2nd question – if I use manage domains to steer visitors to a different URL than what they typed will this hurt me with the search engines?

    I also have my domains setup at GoDaddy. It was my understanding that if I did anything other than a 301 direct that the search engines would not like me. So would “go into your Domains and set the name servers to the default name servers” cause a search engine problem?

    If the answer to that question is “no problem” then would I initiate the name server change at WordPress or GoDaddy?

    I’ve been reading for a week now and your solution above seems so much easier than everything else I’ve come across. One question though – when you say “Point all domains you want to the same wordpress directory” are you talking about redirecting or symbolic links – or does it not matter?
