    Hyperlinks Color?

    I have a new vB4.2.X ... I just noticed that when someone posts a link on a thread, you cannot tell it is a link unless you hover over it with your cursor. How can I make it to where the links are in the atypical blue color, or bold, or underlined or something.

    Just checking to see how it shows here: My Forum

    That is controlled by the stylevar "link color" under the Global block.

    But that will change more than just the post links, you may need to add custom css coding to the additional.css template to control just that link color.

      Ohhh... ok... any advice for the code? I have a moderator that is familiar with CSS and maybe he can do it for me.

        I found the additional.css template... what do I change here:

        .forumbits .forumbit_nopost .forumhead .forumrowdata .subforumdescription { padding-left:10px; }
        .forumbits .forumbit_nopost .forumhead { background-color:#274D66; background-image:none; }

          I also went into the main CSS section of my forum and found this... if I am reading it correct it doesn't this mean it should show the links in blue?

              As your style is custom, its unsupported by vbulletin.

              As the designer of the theme has set custom css to override the default link color, you will need to inspect your site using Chrome's Inspect Element tool or FF's code tools and find out what custom css is controlling the link color to change it.
