    The color of links on my site is displaying incorrectly in Chrome. Once clicked and returned to, the links take their correct color, but upon opening a page the color from my css and theme appearance is not represented.

    link text should all be black, but is displaying as a mix of gray and black.

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

  • From what I can see using Firefox and Chrome, the behaviour is the same, your links are grey (#7a7a7a), when visited they turn to black (#000) and when hovered over they turn light grey (#b2b2b2).

    Your visited and hover colors are dictated by some inline-styles that I can see within your <head>, try getting rid of this and applying colors via your stylesheet.

    Thanks ThemeSumo! I am a complete beginner with this stuff, would you be able to tell me where/how to edit this?

    Are you using this Virtue theme?

    I’ve been looking through the options and although the theme is quite comprehensive offering a wide-range of options, I can’t seem to replicate the same issue using the colorpickers within the Customizer.

    I would try disabling all of your plugins to see if any of those are injecting some inline styles into your head area.

    I am using Virtue, and yes it’s generally quite comprehensive! As far as I can tell everything on the user-friendly side of the theme is correct. Unfortunately deactivating my plugins didn’t solve the issue

    Issue resolved!

    For some reason the settings were off under Appearance>Themes. I clicked the “Customize” button on the Virtue theme and updated the settings under Basic Styling for Primary Color and 20% Lighter Than.

    Thank you for your help
