From what I can see using Firefox and Chrome, the behaviour is the same, your links are grey (#7a7a7a), when visited they turn to black (#000) and when hovered over they turn light grey (#b2b2b2).
Your visited and hover colors are dictated by some inline-styles that I can see within your <head>, try getting rid of this and applying colors via your stylesheet.
Thanks ThemeSumo! I am a complete beginner with this stuff, would you be able to tell me where/how to edit this?
Are you using this Virtue theme?
I’ve been looking through the options and although the theme is quite comprehensive offering a wide-range of options, I can’t seem to replicate the same issue using the colorpickers within the Customizer.
I would try disabling all of your plugins to see if any of those are injecting some inline styles into your head area.
I am using Virtue, and yes it’s generally quite comprehensive! As far as I can tell everything on the user-friendly side of the theme is correct. Unfortunately deactivating my plugins didn’t solve the issue
Issue resolved!
For some reason the settings were off under Appearance>Themes. I clicked the “Customize” button on the Virtue theme and updated the settings under Basic Styling for Primary Color and 20% Lighter Than.
Thank you for your help
