Can I underline links do something else to make them stand out?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello. I just changed my theme to “Bouquet” with the blue forget-me-nots. The links in my blog on this theme are difficult to see b/c they are blue and so close to the black font color. Can I underline them or bold them or change their color so they stand out more? I looked around the site, but I cannot figure out how to do this. Thanks!

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    I sometimes bold a link – after you have the link set up – just select the text for the link in the Visual Editor and click on the Bold Icon for formatting the text.

    You can also change the color using the above instructions but click on the color drop down (the large “A” with a bar under it and pick a different color

    Both options are for each link you want to change – if you purchase the CSS upgrade you should be able to change the link style for your whole blog –

    But the methods I gave are free and built in

    Auxclass – thank you for your suggestions! Your idea to simply just bold the link worked great. And it’s good to know that I would need to upgrade in order to change the formatting of the link permanently. Your response leaves me with one more queston: You say to click the large “A” to change color. So I looked for that, and then I looked around the “help” section of WordPress and noticed that they show 2 lines of options where the “bold”,”link”, etc options are. But I only have one line showing and I can’t figure out how to get the other line to show up. So my “underline” and “font color changing” options do not exist currently for me. Do you or anyone else know how to make this second line appear?

    Thanks for your help so far!
