There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

Hi,

I'm trying to link to text within a page, but the anchor text displays a hover effect as if it were a link itself?

I've read through this thread, but the css solution doesn't work for me

http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthr...ghlight=anchor

any insight?

link to the page in question:

the reason it works for her and not you is that you define your links differently. Your link is
HTML Code:
<a href="#Introduction">Introduction</a>
while hers is
HTML Code:
<a class="anchorlink" name="Process">The Apartment Search Process</a>
notice she used a class=anchorlink? By doing this she can nor define a CSS selector to effect thist elements with the
HTML Code:
.anchorlink:hover {
text-decoration: none;
font-weight: normal;
}
if you just add this CSS in it is saying 'Find any link with a class of 'anchorlink' and if you hover over it, remove any text decoration.

You don't have anything with a class of 'anchorlink' so nothing happens.

I have the same problem, or at least very similar... I have bold text which when hovered are seen as unbolded underlined links... I have placed

.anchorlink:hover {
text-decoration: none;
font-weight: normal;
}

in the Add CSS/HTML Inserts option of the theme.. where do I add the rest of the code linking to the CSS?

I have many many anchor links within the same page so would be nice to get rid of it

Your bold text (like the word 'Altricial') is a LINK Why are you defining these words as links without any href= ??

since it is a link, it's picking up teh defaule styling for links.
