For now just override it by writing more CSS:
.entry-content a, .entry-content a:visited, #secondary a, #secondary a:visited, #masthead .hgroup a, #masthead .hgroup a:visited {
color: pink;
}
Add more specificity if you want:
html .entry-content a, html .entry-content a:visited, html #secondary a, html #secondary a:visited, html #masthead .hgroup a, html #masthead .hgroup html a:visited {
color: pink;
}
Unfortunately, like mentioned above – this would not be an option due to the “a:visited” links site-wide.
What I mean is, some links are white… others are black… others are blue… So, if I overwrite them with any decent color using my site’s theme, the links would then be invisible somewhere. Only feasible colors I could use are black, white, or the blue… Any other color would be an eye-sore. 🙁
Thanks anyway for attempting to help out, but I really need to find this code and simply remove it so that my website uses the colors it was assigned per link on the site. (Some are white, some are black, some are blue.) Having to use ONE color site-wide simply does not work mate.
If I simply uncheck the color box using the “Inspect Elements” option on Google Chrome, the links all look 100% perfect. 🙂 I just need to know where this code is on my website so that I can destroy it! 😀

Deactivate all of your plugins to explore whether any could be responsible.
This hex color code is very specific to me – I chose it personally and use it site-wide on many things – so I know that this was not implemented by a plugin mate.
Checking the page source it is telling me that the code is here:
<style type="text/css" id="customizer-css">
So, this is “Custom CSS” in WordPress, correct? WEIRD. I don’t have this code in my Custom CSS!!!!
.entry-content a,.entry-content a:visited,#secondary a,#secondary a:visited,#masthead .hgroup a,#masthead .hgroup a:visited{color:#6d97d6}
lol, wtf? O.o

WordPress doesn’t have a Custom CSS section, I suspect a plugin is causing your issue.
Vantage Theme has a “Custom CSS” section mate.
Hi Jody
Custom CSS entries are marked as Custom CSS:
<style id="vantage-custom-css" class="siteorigin-custom-css" type="text/css">
That’s available at Appearance > Custom CSS if you’re using SiteOrigin Custom CSS plugin and or Vantage Premium.
The block you’ve mentioned is outputted by the Customizer. Appearance > Customize > Theme Design.
id="customizer-css"
The link color setting is available at Appearance > Customize > Theme Design > General.
If you need further help, please, post on our forums using your order code: https://siteorigin.com/thread. That helps us identify which theme and version you’re using right away. We only work with Vantage free questions or SiteOrigin plugin (all free) questions here on the .org forums.
Andrew, thanks for jumping in here. Sorry about the confusion. As always, we appreciate your input.

I thought you had already checked Vantage theme’s “Custom CSS” section and could not find the problematic code. I just checked and saw you were using the Premium version of the Vantage theme. Is this true? If so, we can forward you onto your Premium support.

As you have now been provided with a link to your Premium support, I’m closing this thread.
