Hi,

Are you referring to the logo section “Noga Quartet”? If this is the case then add the following code the bottom of your css file:

#logo h1:hover {
color: red;
}

Change the color of red to whatever you want. If you want to add a hex color code just replace red with the code. For instance, here it would be #F80000.

If you plan to make quit a lot of theme changes I’d recommend you setup a child theme structure.

Let me know if this isn’t quite what you want.

Can you post a link to your site please.

No worries mate! I’m glad we managed to sort it. Hope the contract works out and you have loads more in future!

If you’re really nervous about doing this I can do it for you if you setup admin rights for me in your WordPress login area. But hopefully if you follow the instructions step by step it’ll work.

Note that pastebin files are downloaded in txt format. This wont work if you upload it. That’s why I’d just use the link I provided:

https://thinkupthemes.com/wp-content/themes/_s-master/test/content-single.zip

You can backup the original content-single.php file on your desktop if you like. Anywhere safe so you can call on it if we need it. Can you let me know as soon as it’s done and also send me a link to your site please.

Thanks,

Afzaal

I think it’s probably best to follow Andrew’s advice and go down the child theme approach given that changes will get erased on theme update.

If you want the change to be done quickly use my approach. I’d suggest that you then get a childtheme structure setup quickly and get used to making theme changes using this approach in future.

Don’t worry donsque we’ll get this change made and any others you want!

That’s the pastebin link:

The chldtheme approach is definitely the more recommended approach. A little more work to do. The approach I’ve described doesn’t use this approach but actually changes the raw theme files.

Oops! The link should now work. Sorry that was my fault I renamed the file incorrectly.

Try the following link:

https://thinkupthemes.com/wp-content/themes/_s-master/test/content-single.zip

When I say rename it’s just so that you can revert back to the old version if something goes wrong. It’s standard practice to always take backups when making changes like this.

Rename content-single.php to content-single-original.php in your 2011 folder before uploading the file from the zip.

I was changing things sorry. Can you try now. You should get a zip file.

Hi,

I’ve edited the file content-single.php and have uploaded it to my site so you can download. You can download it on the following page:

https://www.thinkupthemes.com/donsque13/

I’ve added some instructions on what you need to do on that link as well. Let me know if you’re still stuck.

Andrew,

OMG you’re a fellow Bristolian!!!! What are the chances!

Like Andrew said,

no css but you can customise. I encourage you not to go down this path because a single php error can bring down your site. If you NEED it out then I’ll help you customise.

Customising will only impact this theme and will not effect others.

Hi,

To do what you want can’t be done with css alone. You’ll have to edit some of the php files because the “Bookmark the permalink” text is not wrapped within it’s own css class.

The easiest thing is to take Josh’s advice which obviously removes all of the meta text at the bottom of the post.

If you really want to get rid of “Bookmark the permalink” I can guide you on how to customise the theme file and then add css to toggle whether to show it or hide it.

Let me know what you’d like to do.

Hi PK,

I’ve removed the background gradient color from “#access” and from “#access a”. Replace the code above in your comment with that below:

#access {
        background: #ffffff;
	color: black;
        font-size: 13px;
        border-top: 2px solid #69c;
        border-bottom: 2px solid #69c;
        width: 1000px;
}
#access a {
        color: black;
        font-size: 13px;
        margin-left: 5px;
}
#access li:hover > a, #access a:focus {
	background: white;
        text-decoration: underline;
        font-size: 15px;
        color: black;
}
#access .current_page_item > a, #access .current_page_ancestor > a {
	background: white;
        font-size: 15px;
        color: black;
        text-decoration: underline;
}

This should do the trick. Also, just a tip the reason why the font color wasn’t showing as black previously was because you missed a comma after the background color so the css didn’t pick up the font color correctly.

Hope this helps!
