How Do I Change The Color Of My Links?

[Kaz63]

Hey,

I was just wondering how to change my forum's links color to something other than black.

Hi Kaz63,

The link colors can be changed by doing the following:

Visit your admin panel, then navigate to Themes > Colors & Styles. On the next page using the Visual Editor, navigate to the following:

Forum > Body (Content) > Containers > Text > Links --- you'll be able to change the text color of links on the forum here

Hi Ricky.

I was with you up until the part where I click on "Links". I can't seem to find it.

[CheatAreZee]

Ah, my apologies:

Forum > Body (Content) > Containers > Content Area Containers > Text > Links

Forgot to add the "Content Area Containers" part.

[Kaz63]

No worries. No man is smart enough to remember everything he knows.


What about widening forum width?

[CheatAreZee]

In the Themes > Colors & Styles area, using the visual editor navigate to Forum > Width and here you can adjust the width to your liking

Hi 

This was really useful to me, although I do have one other question about links - the links across the forum have changed to the colour I wanted to - however the colours in the news fader have not. How do you do that?

Hi, Chloe.

If you place this at the bottom of Themes > Colors & Styles > Style Sheet, your news feed will use the same link color you've set for the containers.

#news a { color: @container_links_color; }

Hi

This appears to have changed (again) as there no longer seems to be anything that says 'Links' in the Visual Editor.

Is it the same links you want to change, ie those posted?

It is, yeah

It is still there. Could you take another look for me.

For some reason, I can not change my link colors at all. I tried picking a bright green to make it noticeable on the visual display but it still remains black in the posts. I'm not sure what to change anymore. Even the hover colors are malfunctioned.

If you have more than one skin, are you sure you are modifying the correct one?

I am.. just none of the color changes are showing on the visual and when I save it's still black and such. Only link colors that change are those copyright link stuff at the bottom of the forum.

Is there a guide on what parts change what section of the forum? lol
