  Hi there, I’d like to change the way my links show up in post texts. right now, the font is slightly larger and underlined. I want to make them same size as rest of text but just a different color, like red-orange. Can you help please? I do have Custom design upgrade.

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

  The reply in https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/change-link-format?replies=6 was for the Forever theme, which is the theme used for the blog linked to the username christinemartindesign.

  To change the color for links inside posts in the Blogum theme to be red-orange and not underlined, add this to your Appearance → Custom Design → CSS:

  .post-content p a span,
  .post-content p a,
  .post-content li a,
  .post-content table a {
  	color: #930 !important;
  	border: none;
  	font-size: 1em;
  }
  .post-content p span {
  	font-size: 1em;
  }

  The http://happyimpermanence.wordpress.com/ site has a lot of custom HTML inside the posts that change the color of text and links. The example above tries to work around those settings and override the HTML color settings you added to links inside posts. Note that the example CSS may not catch all of them depending on the HTML code. To avoid this problem, you should remove the extra color settings inside the posts using the HTML editor.
