Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA
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

[SOLVED] Link color in comment area

Hi there!

Tried to find a solution in the forum but couldn't find any. I have the following problem.

I changed the background color and text color of my comment field, I have now the following CSS in the comment form style are:

margin: 25px 0;
padding: 25px;
background: #222222;
color: #ffffff;
-moz-border-radius: 8px;
-khtml-border-radius: 8px;
-webkit-border-radius: 8px;
border-radius: 8px;

Everything looks fine except the links are still in black the way I set it up for the rest of the theme, how can I change the link color of the comment area only? I tried adding something like this here:

a:link {color:#FF0000;}
a:visited {color:#00FF00;}
a:hover {color:#FF00FF;}
a:active {color:#0000FF;}

but assume it's the wrong way of doing that. Does anyone know how to do that right?

Thanks in advance! :-)

you will need to add some code to the CSS Inserts option and target the links in the comments. You should use FireBug in FireFox to examine the page and see what elements there are to use as your CSS selector. Try this
HTML Code:
div#respond a:link {color:#FF0000;} 
div#respond a:visited {color:#00FF00;}
div#respond a:hover {color:#FF00FF;}
div#respond a:active {color:#0000FF;}

That worked perfect! I completely looked at the wrong place. Should use Firebug more often too!

Thank you a lot!
