• Hello,

    I’ve been working on customizing my website by using a child theme, and something has gone wonky, but I’m not sure what I did wrong. I was changing the colours of the links site-wide, and now when I click on the navigation menu or site title, they move to the right and a weird underline appears. I tried to make the CSS for those elements as specific as possible, but it didn’t work.

    I recorded it happening (link below), and tested it in both Safari and Chrome.

    Here is the CSS I added just before I began having the issues:

    /* Link colours
    ---------------------------------*/
    
    a:-webkit-any-link {
        text-decoration: inherit;
    }
    
    .widget a {
        text-decoration: none;
        color: #5e5853;
    }
    
    .widget a:visited {
        color: #5e5853;
    }
    
    .widget a:hover, a:focus, a:active {
      color: #8A59A6;
      text-decoration: underline;
    }
    
    a {
        color: #8A59A6;
        transition: 0.3s;
    }
    
    a:visited {
        color: #8A59A6;
    }
    
    a:hover, a:focus, a:active {
        color: #99908a;
        text-decoration: underline;
    }
    
    .site-footer a,
    .site-footer a:visited {
        text-decoration: none;
        color: #99908a;
    }
    
    .site-footer a:hover,
    .site-footer a:visited:hover {
        color: #99908a;
        text-decoration: underline;
    }
    
    .entry-meta a {
        color: #383e44;
        text-decoration: none;
        cursor: default;
    }
    
    .site-title a:link, .site-title a:visited, .site-title a:hover, .site-title a:focus, .site-title a:active {
        color: #e8e9ea;
        text-decoration: none;
    }
    
    /* Menu Nav bar
    ---------------------------------*/
    
    .main-navigation a:link, .main-navigation a:visited, .main-navigation a:hover, .main-navigation a:focus, .main-navigation a:active {
        text-decoration: none;
    
    }
    
    /* Related posts bar
    ---------------------------------*/
    
    #jp-relatedposts h3.jp-relatedposts-headline {
        font-family: Raleway, "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif !important;
    }
    
    #jp-relatedposts .jp-relatedposts-items .jp-relatedposts-post .jp-relatedposts-post-title a {
        font-family: Raleway, "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif !important;
        font-weight: bold !important;
        text-transform: uppercase;
    }

    I’m really hoping that I can find a way to keep the CSS formatting I did and fix the issue since I’m really happy with the way my links turned out!

    Thanks in advance!
