  I am trying to place hyperlinks into my blogs that I’m writing. Previously, they would turn the text red, but now there is an almost invisible grey underline, and that’s it. How can I get it to return to the previous way?

  WP.com: Unknown
  Jetpack: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

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

  Hi there,

  We can’t help directly because we don’t host your site on our WordPress.com managed business hosting. As a result we don’t have the ability to take a closer look at your site.

  Instead your host (Bluehost) uses the open-source variant of the WordPress platform which functions differently than what we offer here on WordPress.com, so for help with this you will need to turn to the open-source WordPress forums here: https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/

  Although in this case I took a look at the source code of your site, and found you are using the Ascent theme. We don’t offer that theme on WordPress.com so we’re not familiar with it, but link color issues are usually related to your theme and not a general WordPress issue. With this in mind I think it will be a good idea to first ask the creator of your theme for help, as they would be most familiar with your theme and how to fix it: https://wordpress.org/support/theme/ascend/

  Hope this helps point you in the right direction!
