How do I change the text color in the Twitter widget? Also how do I make all links on my page and Twitter widget a different color?

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

Twitter stuff only.
```
.tweets li {
color: #cc0000;
}

.tweets li a {
color: #59ff19;
}
```
Links throughout the entire site are mostly controlled by separate selectors/classes/ids in the CSS. What all do you want to change? There could be 10 or 20 of them. On top of that some have regular (non-hover) and also hover colors.

Jonathan performed at clubs, collages…

Collages or Colleges?

Sorry, the technical editor coming out in me.

Here would be a few more.

The metadata below the titles
```
.entry-meta a {
color: #666C7F;
}

.entry-meta a:hover {
color: #FF5A00;
}
```
And here would be another. This would likely cover links in post and page bodies and possibly some other locations.
```
a {
color: #989EAE;
}
```
And another (author in the orange block above the post title).
```
.entry-byline a {
color: #FFFFFF;
}
```

Do you know how to change the text color associated with the follow button?

He does, but he’s probably not willing to help anymore (nothing to do with you). You’ll have to wait for a staff reply.

Sorry but I do not know how to do that. All I know about changing anything is on this page. Best wishes!!

To change the text color of the follow button on the inside the Follow Blog widget, try this:
```
#subscribe-blog input[type="submit"] {
  color: red;
}
```

I’m new to wordpress. I assume I’d copy this into the box of a text widget? I tried that, but the HTML shows up in the sidebar. What am I doing wrong? Sorry, I’m a neophyte.
Thanks!

Welcome! In order to add CSS to a WordPress.com blog, you need to purchase the Custom Design upgrade. You can preview before buying or purchase the upgrade through the Appearance → Custom Design → CSS page in your WordPress.com blog dashboard.

Ah, that explains it! I’ll take a look at the upgrade. Thanks!
