Different colors of text links

[mariusjopen]

Hi @KatB

this would be the way to go:

But as you can see the element.style overwrites the color blue. Element Styles always overwrite everything.
You can change that by NOT giving the link a colour in the Textfield of the Gridder.
Then the Blue, or whatever colour you want, should work.

All the best!

Hello @mariusjopen,

I have the same problem I think, but I can't figure how I can "NOT giving the link a colour in the Textfield of the Gridder."!

There is not "no color" option. My website is : http://zoelevoyer.com/

Thanks for your help !!

Hello, I'm working on a site with black project backgrounds and white page backgrounds.

I've successfully changed the site title and menus with the great CSS help on this forum, so a great many thanks!

However, I can't seem to get the hyperlinks to change colour on pages (they are set to be white, so disappear on my white pages).

I've read various threads (about slugs, etc) but still no joy.

The codes I used for the backgrounds, and sitetitle both work, but the third bit of code (for the links) does not work...

Am I doning something wrong? (I'd also need to keep links black (#1b1212) in all their states.

Dear @billykioso

Thanks for being on the forum 🌐
I think the problem comes from the link element in your CSS.

Stated as .a which may refer to a class called "a" because of the class declaration .

body.type-page .a {color: #1b1212 !important;}
To:
body.type-page a {color: #1b1212 !important;}

Similar to how the span element has been targeted:

body.type-page .sitetitle.txt .sitetitle-txt-inner span {color: #1b1212;}

https://www.w3schools.com/css/css_link.asp

https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_span.asp

body[data-type="page"]{
background-color: #fdfcfa;
}

body.type-page .sitetitle.txt .sitetitle-txt-inner span{
  color: #1b1212;
}

body.type-page a{
 color: #1b1212 !important;
}

Also if you wish to target the link further, nested within each menu point ( a ) there should be a span element:

You could use the CSS:

body.type-page a span{
 color: #1b1212 !important;
}

Hope this helps @billykioso & thanks for supporting Lay Theme 📣

Thank you Richard, that's great!

It already works perfectly (in all its states) by removing the '.' class declaration, but if I feel brave I might experiment some more with it as a span element.

Thanks again!

Hello Marius,
I think I have kind of the same problem and I can't solve it!

I would like the links on the home page to appear in white and the links on the "nos réalisations" page to appear in black. I would like all the hover links to appear in blue.

As you can see, when I put my link in white on the home page, there is hover in blue anymore.

I set the text color in black in Customize -> Links in Texts as you suggested to EvaAnna but it doesn't change anything.

Thanks a lot for your help and for all your work!!

hey!

here:
https://laytheme.com/documentation/custom-css-styling.html
read the section "CSS based on current page"

links in texts for a certain page (in this example: your frontpage)

.slug-work .lay-textformat-parent a,
.slug-work a.projectlink .lay-textformat-parent>*,
.slug-work .lay-carousel-sink .single-caption-inner a,
.slug-work .lay-marquee p a{
color: blue;
}

different mouseover color for that certain page:

.slug-work .lay-textformat-parent a:hover,
.slug-work a.projectlink:hover .lay-textformat-parent>*,
.slug-work .lay-carousel-sink .single-caption-inner a:hover,
.slug-work .lay-marquee p a:hover{
color: red;
}

probably this is enough:

.slug-work .lay-textformat-parent a{
color: blue;
}

and mouseover:

.slug-work .lay-textformat-parent a:hover{
color: red;
}

does that answer the question?

@arminunruh It's perfect, thank you very much!!
