Link colors not consistent

  • I’ve looked at the code until I’ve gone cross-eyed and I can’t figure this out.

    My blog (www.familywebwatch.com/blog) has all the links in red, which is the way I want them. HOWEVER, there are some links that are the old faded red (before I switched templates), which I don’t want.

    You’ll note in the second post entitled I can find so much about you in 5 minutes the link called “article” and “Read more…” at the end of the post are both in the same faded red.

    But here’s the catch: I’m seeing this in Firefox. IE doesn’t seem to have this trouble (but it does seem to have trouble viewing the micro icons, but that’s for another post).

    The other thing is that when you click to view the post on its own page, everything is just dandy. What’s up with that?

  • They are all red for me, but turn the other color when visited. If you want them to stay red after visited, then you need to change the css for visited links.

    then you need to change the css for visited links.

    Well, I believe I’ve allowed for that. Besides, it’s not when they’re visited that I’m having the problem. It’s when they’re not visited (a:link, right?)

    No, they changed for me when visited.

    I think your problem is this:

    .entry p a:visited {
    color: #b85b5a;
    }

    That was it! Thanks!

    Your reward is parked out front. ??

    Man, I’m an idiot!!! I was just about to post about this, and then I realized the links that were the “wrong color” were the visited ones. Jeez….

    Godspeed,
