De.scription and Message

Where do you go to change the color of a hyperlink in a post?

right now, i'm using the dark theme for 141, and the color stays the same when someone makes a hyperlink, making it hard to know it's a link unless you actually hover over it... i didn't see a class assigned to it, although, i may have missed it

Thank you in advance!

Please provide a link to your website. This way I can see your exact theme, as there are several dark themes. Also, provide the css file for your theme so I can show you what to change.

oh oops. i thought i filled that out :/

http://www.falloutzone.net

there's a css file for each color but here's one of them:

[code]  /* The content of the posts (body of text) */body{background]

[Whisky]

[code]/* General page style */a]

Change the color there:
color:#CCCCCC (all hyperlinks grey)
color:FFFFFF (become white on mouseover)

[zenrei]

oh ok, so there's no way to change JUST the post links, not all the links on the site?

[Whisky]

<img> ho yeah this will change all links I misenderstood

To change the links only in posts add this to your CSS:

[code].postbody a {color]

[zenrei]

that did it!

Thank you Whisky!!

[zenrei]

out of curiosity, which file is .postbody commanded? because that code seems to work when you start the thread, but when people post url's in replies, the hover over color is working, but the url is white again, even though I specified red in for the url color:

Code: Select all

 .postbody a {color:#D2232A;} .postbody a:hover{color:#0000FF;}

Well... after about 30 minutes of digging through your site for some links to use for comparison, and after unexpectedly witnessing an article on a man engaging in self-gratification with an awl... I gave up and decided I would rather ask you here lol

Please provide a link to a page where the links are not being displayed properly.

P.S. #0000FF is blue <img>

[zenrei]

lmaooo!!!

yeah, we have some *cough* colorful *cough* topics there sometimes <img>

yeah, i don't mind the hover over being blue...

Check out this link:

the link is white, but in other places, links come up the color specified for the theme

but if you look at the links on the first post of this thread:

http://www.falloutzone.net/foz/viewtopic.php?t=3467


it's the correct color (green for green theme, red for red, etc)

notice the hover color works regardless

To me the links display fine everywhere! But sometimes it's because a link was already clicked in the past for it to be in a different color.

In addition to above .css code, you could add to the first line after ".postbody a":
[code]  , .postbody a]

(or replace it to match the following:
[code]  .postbody a, .postbody a]
At least I think that should cover it! <img>

[zenrei]

that did it!!

woo hoo!!
