Sorry…I’m a coding novice. Where would I place this Robkk? Thanks!
ok this changes the style of all the links on your site so it is not white (i copied googles link color)
a {
color: #3a84df;
}
a:hover {
color: #3a84df;
text:decoration: underline;
}
you add this into anywhere where you can have custom css
in your child themes css stylesheet
the jetpack plugin module custom css
a standalone custom css plugin
Thanks Robkk…but I definitely don’t want to change the color of all links or breadcrumbs in my theme…just for the bbPress forum.
well you should change your sitewide hyperlink color because you want people to see links you post.
for topics
a.bbp-topic-permalink {
color:#222;
}
for forums
a.bbp-forum-title {
color:#222;
}
Howdy Robkk!
After reviewing things a bit more this morning, I see what you’re saying & was able to update the link colors. I was afraid that editing links would also edit the menu color, but then again, I’m a total coding novice. 😉
To make editing the style easy as cake, I add the Simple Custom CSS plugin & popped the edits in there & BAM! Beautiful!
Thanks for you patience & help!
HI guys,
I am trying to do the same,…
I have this in my theme css
body {
color:#dbd8c4;
font-size:13px;
font-family: 'arial';
position:relative;
}
a {
color:#dbd8c4;
text-decoration:none;
}
a:hover {
text-decoration:underline;
color:#ba110e;
font-size: 14px;
}
If i change colors even nickname profile link changes too.
I would only like to change formatting of links user post on forums. Is that possible?
@akyboy
list some links you are trying to change in bbpress.
HI thanks for answer
This is the link to our site:
http://www.cannedbandits.org/the-third-campaign-on-the-global-map/ and this thread have some link in it, as you can see, on hover it goes red but Author link is changed to with same colors.
if you want your bbpress forum links to be different than your sites links use this
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-content a, #bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-content a {
background: none;
border: none;
display: inline;
font-weight: normal;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
color: red;
}
Thanks Mr Rob!
Nice when someone can find out newbie question and actually give us an working or partially working examples 🙂
In my case this was fully working example, only thing i changed was color: red; , to color we prefer.
Using your example i also changed color of the links in actual posts: http://www.cannedbandits.org/skirmish-calling-guide/
EDIT, just noticed little problem
Skirmish Calling Guide
Favorites and Subscribe links are changed to that color now.
well i cant see the links on your site because its only shown if you are logged in.
but i just looked up the css selectors on here.
see if this changes the color.
a.subscription-toggle,
a.favorite-toggle {
color:328c00;
}
if you want to change the color of other links like for example the reply author link use inspect element in your web browser, and try to find the class/id then style it from there.
if sometimes some css doesnt work you would have to probably go add the parent class/id in the css or add !important to the end.
like
li.bbp-header a.favorite-toggle {
color:#328c00;
}
search up on google/youtube on how to use inspect element in your browser

Thanks Mr Rob!!!
I really appreciate your help!
!important worked fine
I will bookmark 2 links you gave me for future references
