    Thems: Suits v 1.2
    Child themes: None
    Browser dependence: Occurs in Mac OSX Safari and Firefox, Linux Firefox, and Android Firefox, Chrome, Dolphin, and Stock Browsers
    Plugin dependence: Still occurs after disabling all plugins. All plugins are up-to-date.
    Caches: Purged to the best of my knowledge – possible something might be lurking

    style.css modified to restore “Posted by” text by adding code snippet as shown in

    Issue: Hyperlinks used to render with either an underline and/or a different color to stand out. Now, all post text is in the same font with no clear identification of a hyperlink. The mouse pointer changes when I mouseover a link but that’s the only way to know a link is present. All hyperlinks are present in the HTML so nothing has been lost.

    Items on sidebars such as About:, Recent Posts:, etc. show a discreet underline as in the past. Posts read in an RSS reader still show hyperlinks as distinct from body text. The problem is restricted to the text in a post when visiting the site through a browser.

    Prior upgrades have been relatively smooth. This is puzzling.

    You have an extra } character in your theme’s style.css file, on line 978:

    .single-author .entry-meta .by-author {
display: inline;
}

}

/* =Entry Content
----------------------------------------------- */

    I think it’s interfering with the following rule, which happens to specify the style for links in content.

    That fixed it!

    Thank you, very much! I must have botched the copy/paste operation. I was just starting to look at the theme code and am glad I didn’t have to try to tweak that as well.
