# Post Title Hover Color?

 * [10 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-title-hover-color/)
 * I decided to change some of the colors and styles of the text for Category, Date
   and Post Titles on my front page. The changes were made on the content in the
   Featured Slider as well as the standard list of posts. I was able to figure out
   how to customize almost everything the way I wanted, but oddly, I can’t seem 
   to get the hover color of the Post Title to change.
 * I’ve tried a few pieces of code, but none seem to change it. It starts out as
   the Primary color I chose in the Theme Customizer and then turns to a dark gray
   when I hovered over it (not sure if this is standard or related to other colors
   I chose in the Theme Customizer).
 * Anyway, I’d like to change it to an orange color (#b87333, to be exact). All 
   my other hover links start out as red and then change to #b87333 when you hover
   over them, but I just can’t get the Post title links in the blog list and slider
   to change. I’m obviously doing something very wrong, but I just don’t know what.
   Any suggestions?

 * Hi AZBros. The issue here is that the post content, including the title, is enclosed
   in a `<div>` element with a “post-hover” class. When you hover over any part 
   of the post (image, title, content), the image opacity will change and the title
   and meta data color will change. This is all driven by jQuery. You can apply 
   a specific style to the post title but you have to hover over the title specifically
   to make it active:
 *     ```
       /* change post hover color to orange */
       article .post-inner .post-title a:hover {
           color: #b87333;
       }
       ```
