    I have tried editing the bootstrap css file by adding the following code per another post in the support forum and this hasn’t worked

    a {
    color: #333;
    }

    I tried editing the stylesheet in the Editor as well.

    Where exactly ahould this code should be modified or added.

    In your Child Theme or CSS Editor Plugin try this code:

    a {
    color: #009900;
}

a:hover {
    color: #ff0000;
}

    Just edit the green and red colors I used.

    *Note
    If your theme has a custom CSS Editor in it, you can also paste the code in there.

    Never edit core CSS or PHP files, they’ll be deleted when the theme is updated.

    I created a child theme, when I went to activate it says the theme is broken and the template is missing.

    Here is my style.css

    a {
    color: #2A363B;
    }

    a:hover {
    color: #cccccc;
    }

    Here is my functions.php

    (<?php)

    add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘theme_enqueue_styles’ );
    function theme_enqueue_styles() {
    wp_enqueue_style( ‘parent-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’ );
    wp_enqueue_style( ‘child-style’,
    get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’,
    array(‘parent-style’)
    );
    }

    If you’re just going to edit CSS I would just go with a CSS Plugin like the one I provided above instead of a Child Theme.
