Links in Texts Mouseover not working
Hello,
In the "Info" page of my website I'we linked my e-mail (mailto:mymail) and till here ok. What I want to do is to change the color of the mail while the mouse is over it (blue) as I setted up in the menu. I saw in the option "Links in Texts Mouseoverthat's" that's possible set it up, so I changed it but the color of the mail still remain black. I don't know if is a bug or what.
Here's the link: http://www.joshuaalthaus.com/info/
Thanks in advance
You somehow placed a span there that’s overriding the style:
You can remove that span while in the text editor and clicking the <>/source code icon, then delete the spans that need to be removed. If your text formats are setup correctly a click on the eraser/clear formatting should also do the trick.
Also your email is not really linked to your email-address right now. The markup should look more like this:

Hope that helps!
I'll try thanks, I can change it with the inspection of the element?
No you can’t make permanent changes with the web inspector/dev console of your browser.
You need to make these changes in the backend of wordpress/lay theme. (as described above)
Perfect! Thank you
@edgrbnz Hey, I tried to do as you showed me above but it changes directly the color of the link. I just want to change the color of the mouseover (as you can see in the menu). Here the code attached, could you pleas precisely tell me which part I've to delete or modify? 
Thanks in advance
Best!

Hey there,
There’s no need for custom CSS in this case – You have all these options as settings in the customizer:
All you need/should do is remove the spans you have in your markup. They might overwrite the global settings.
Hope that helps!
Hey,
As I told you in the first message I already tried but's not working from the option settings "Links in Texts Mouseover" the link still remain black.
If I change the opacity is working but the coloro doesn't change
It is not changing because of all the inline-styles you got in there.
Did you try to copy-paste the following code instead of the one you are using?

As said bfore you may need to get rid of all the inline styles in your code for this to work.
You can remove <span style="color: #000000;"> completely – Instead of <a style="color: #000000; href="… it should just be <a href="… and so on… it’s pretty easy to do.
If you need further help with this you may send me your login credentials via DM and I may be be able to have a look as soon as I find some spare time.
Hope that helps!
Thank you @edgrbnz for contributing that well to the community!
