Need Assistance Changing Link Colors

  • Hi!
    I have tried everything, I cant seem to change the link colors for this site. I would like all links to be blue: active , visited, hover etc.

    None of the changes I make to the stylesheet are actually applied to the site. What am I overlooking?

    Im very open to any suggestions. Thank you so much in advance.

    Stylesheet below.

    I could change the link color perfectly fine. Remember you have to change it everywhere, not only in a but in #sidebar, .postitle, #header, etc. Just look for a { and a:hover and change #42a514 (the green) for #397aca (blue). Or you could just open your style.css in notepad or similar and do a simple search and replace.

    (Also, I belive you shouldn’t post huge chunks of code like that, there’s a pastebin for it.)

    Hope I helped!
