[resolved] Changing green text to standard blue on Cutline (6 posts)

    Hi -

    I just created a blog using Cutline at http://the-fuqua-experience.com. This site is a Duke University student page, so I like the blue color scheme. However, there are several areas that have green text, including:

    1. The search box ("To search, type and hit enter)
    2. The current page you are on ("Home" link is green underlined)

    Basically, I want to remove any instances of green text in the theme.

    Thanks!

    Should be able to go into your style.css file under the directory of the template that you're using, find your a:visited tag and change the hex color value. The text color for the search box should be in that file also, might have to look for it.

    Could you be more specific? I've tried your suggestion; the problem is, none of the lines on the a:visited seem to apply (when I look at the comments in the code).

    Would you happen to know the hex code for the "Cutline green"? I think that might narrow down my search a bit…

    search form text color is here:

    /*---:[ search form styles ]:---*/

    #search_form { }

    #search_form .search_input { width: 201px; padding: 3px; color: #090;

    #090 is the green

    You should be able to search the css to change all other instances of the color #090 that you need to.

    Awesome, thank you so much!

    For those who might come across this in the future, I substituted "#0060ff" for the 5 instances of #090 to remove the green text from the entire Cutline theme.

    Glad you got it fixed
