  Hi all,

  I’ve recently been customizing a theme to my liking by adding CSS. The theme came with a purple colour scheme.

  I have managed to change all the purple colours to my preferred scheme so far, except for when text is highlighted. I thought I fixed things by adding the following CSS:

  p::-moz-selection { background-color: #00CA12}
  p::selection { background: #00CA12; }

  This did fix most highlighted text. However, there are still some text elements that are showing up in purple – it seems to be when hyperlinks are highlighted, as well as any italicized/bold text. Please see this screenshot for more info:

  Let me know what CSS I could implement to fix this and get all highlighted text showing up as the green colour! Many thanks
