You’ll also find the text color in the same place — * color*. * To change the link color look for the colors in /* Links */ — it’s specified twice — once for ordinary links and another time for hover. * BTW, a link to your stylesheet would be enough — you don’t really have to paste the whole thing. * Good luck with your blog! * Thread Starter [heatherrm96](https://wordpress.org/support/users/heatherrm96/) * (@heatherrm96) * [19 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/andreas-theme-questions/#post-577368) * Haecceity, * Thanks for your reply!
