 * Hello WordPress Users.
 * I am struggling with a problem and hope someone can help me with this. I am currently
   working on my first ever weblog and just noticed a problem. The problem is when
   i am on my desktop and hover on my text on the homepage it gets blue. I want 
   it to be clear and normal and don’t know how to fix this. I am a beginner so 
   hopefully someone can explain me this or give me a custom css code that works.
   Thankyou for reading and helping me out!
 * Kind regards,
 * Niek Olthof

 * You can remove a hover effect via Additional CSS in the Customizer.
    The Customizer
   can be found under the Appearance menu on /wp-admin/.
 * I don’t see any text that goes blue on hover on your homepage though 🙂

 * Do you mean the links? That’s all I can see blue also.
 * You can style those by adding this to Additional CSS:
    a { color: #000; }

 * This is what i mean, see link below. When i select text on my website it is compeletely
   blue and unreadable. When i do this on other pages like Facebook it is regular
   blue and readable. Do you guys have the same issue or is it just me? Thanks for
   answering guys, really means alot.

 * there is a style in the minified CSS of your theme Astra:
 *     ```
       ::selection {
           color: #fff;
           background: #0274be;
       }
       ```
   
 * which sets the background of selected items to blue;
 * and there is an additional inline style in your site, also from your theme, which
   sets the font of selected items to transparent:
 * ::selection {
    color: transparent; }`
 * you could try to overwrite that in ‘Additional CSS’ with:
 *     ```
       ::selection {
           color: white;
           background: grey;
       }
       ```
   
 * it might be a good idea to ask in your theme’s support forum at [https://wordpress.org/support/theme/astra](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/astra)
   to find out what the reason behind those style is…
