    Can’t find anything in the editor that allows changing widget background color. I would like to display links and change the name from blogroll to links and make the background white. Last entry on my sidebar is my links can I either make the background white or brighten the links? When moused over their visible but obscure unless moused over?

  • The easiest is to change the font color from

    a {
    color: #C00;
    outline: none;
    text-decoration: none;
    }

    to

    a {
    color: #fff;
    outline: none;
    text-decoration: none;
    }

    This will change them to white. That line is in your style.css file on line 14

    Thanks – but then when you mouse over the white text everything turns white and you can’t read it. No why to high light exactly like the text blocks above the blogroll?

    Your website seems to be currently down. I have to go out for now, but I’ll check back later today and see if you got an answer

    add this to your style.css file

    .blogroll {
    background-color: #fff;
    }

    The site came back up for now… I used your direction to brighten the link color itself, which makes them more visible. However figuring out how to make the inset turn white like the text boxes above would be great. Not sure it’s possible. Thank you for identifying the line that the link color was on in the style sheet…If you know the answer to what I really want I would be very great-full do I don’t think it can be done.

    Where do I add that code? I can’t find a line that calls the blogroll color..

    Currently there isn’t one, so you’ll have to add it to your style.css file. I’m testing it from my browser but it doesn’t seem to conflict with any other rules.

    Let me know where to drop it in if your sure about no conflicts.

    you can add it anywhere. Just for easier maintenance you should try to find a place that concern the sidebar so all this stuff is grouped but you can add it completly at the end just for testing purposes
