Hello, Thank you for this beautiful theme. Is there a reason the Link color won’t change? I have selected a different color (custom #1B0777) yet it comes through as green on all the pages.

Thank you,

Hi Shell, we’re glad you enjoy the theme! Thanks for the kind feedback. Please add the following CSS into the Additional CSS section in the customizer:

a, a:link {
color: #1B0777;
}

I hope this helps!

Thank you for the code, it changes the first two but not the others (I didn’t apply it since it won’t change all.

Let’s Connect!

If you look at the social icons, the Facebook and Instagram ones change when I use that code but the website, twitter, and Pinterest stay green. Do you have another idea that can help those icons change color too?

Thank you,

I figured it out!! I used to write code in another life and by reading what you sent and inspecting the elements, I realized it was not changing them because I’d previously visited them so it wasn’t changing them. I updated the code with

}
a, a:link {
color: #7c61ec;
}
a:visited { color: #ccc2F7;
}

And it worked. At least they’ll be somewhat the same color while still allowing people to tell what they’ve seen before!

Thank you.
