  • Hey @ all,

    Does anyone knows a solution how to change the link color in the mesocolumn theme? The current color is a bit grey, but doesn´t really stand out of the content.

    Thanks guys

  • Not sure if we are referring to the same element, but the links in my test site for MesoColumn are teal.

    You can try entering this rule in your custom CSS (Appearance → Customizer → General → Custom CSS):

    a:link, a:visited {
       color: #52C0D4;
    }

    The color value shown is what is on my own install of MesoColumn. Change to whatever color you wish. If you aren’t familiar with the color hex codes, there’s a color picker here.

    did it work?

    I just tried it and nothing happened. Can´t find any solution in google, too. The standard link color doesn´t make much sense, although it´s an amazing theme with many features

    you should put the code bellow at the end of your theme`s style.css.

    a:link, a:visited {
       color: #ffffff !important;
    }

    just change the #ffffff with the color you want 😉

    @chrismccarston, can you please post a link to your site so we can examine the CSS that you entered? Don’t enter it at the end of your style.css file, or else it will get overwritten the next time the theme is updated. It should work if you put it in the theme’s custom CSS option.

    Yes, please place it in your custom CSS option. And can you also post the address to a specific page or a post that has embedded links that you would like to see changed? Thanks.

    I don’t see your custom CSS. It could be that your cache hasn’t refreshed, though. Can you please temporarily deactivate your Super Cache plugin until you are done with your site updates. You can reactivate it later.

    What is nice about those particular links is that you’ve enclosed them in <h5> tags, which means we can use a rule that will affect only those types of links without affecting any others. Add this rule to your custom CSS instead:

    #post-entry .post-content h5 a {
       color: #0000ff;
    }

    The hex code shown is for blue. You can use this color picker if you need help with the hex codes.
