    Hi, I’m very new to CSS and coding so sorry if this seems quite novice!

    I have the magazine theme and I’ve been trying to change the colours of the links.

    If you take a look at my website: – letsseemoreofkent.co.uk

    I want to change the link colour of the [Read more…] and the hover colour for the menu links. I don’t want the link or hover colour to change for the post titles, or much else really.

    I’ve tried using various coding, like these:

    a:link{
	text-decoration: underline;
	color: #00398A;
}
    a:hover{
	text-decoration: underline;
	color: #ffffff;
}

    But they either change all of the links, which I don’t want, or don’t change the links in blue. I hope this makes sense.

    Various forums I’m looking over says to find this in the style sheet, but I’ve looked through the style sheet and can’t find any coding relating to the links – please help! 🙂

    You can add the following in your custom css, remember to change the hex colour to colour you want to use 🙂

    a {
  color: #333;
}

    Sure! Can I just ask you one more question? How did you know this? I think I need to study up on this sort of stuff! 🙂

    First step would be to understand css, there are few online courses. You can just Google it.

    Other than that you can dig into the code by inspecting the source code, Google Chrome got great feature which allows you to inspect element.
    You can also try the extension Firebug which will give you more details.
    Nothing is impossible 🙂
