[b]Modified[/b]Your question though. If the div handling your text has a class called *content*

Then your css should be

.content a {
color: orange !important;
}

The mod who moved this to front page without correcting the title is so daft like that daura baba at the top between FTC!!!

change the theme and go to color setting
Re: How To Change Link Color In Wordpress? by Donald3d(m): 7:11am On Feb 25, 2018
hmm
Post the site link , thats the best way we can help you .
Anyway this should change the color of all links on the site :

a {
color: yourcolor !important;
}




1.Where are you adding the CSS ?, use the inbuilt CSS customizer in wordpress
2.The color might have changed but your browser cache is still making you see the old color , so clear your browser cache or take a look at the site in another browser or in incognito mode ...better still just clear your browser cache
3.If you are using a cache plugin on the site ror using cloudlfare , clear those caches too
4.If you don't want to clear cache you can trick your browser into loading fresh content by adding a query string at the end of the link eg www.nairaland.com/? or www.nairaland.com/?bla=bla

As a beginner, install site origin custom css. You can use it to give your links your preferred color.

He doesn't even need to do that, except he is using an oudated wordpress version .Themost recent versions have a custom css feature via customize

See my thread on fixing WordPress issues and customization

https://www.nairaland.com/4365424/solve-blogger-wordpress-blogs-css

It's quite easy. Click Appearance > Customization, Edit Css.

From there you can do:
.content a{color:blue !important ;}

Blue is the default color for links and or you may specify any other hex color you know or need.

Simple, on your back end or WordPress dashboard, navigate to Appearance>Customize. When it loads, you should be on the theme customisation page where live changes are made. Look for 'Theme Settings' and change to your desired colour. It would be better though if you have a colour code to blend with your logo.
Re: How To Change Link Color In Wordpress? by AnodaIT(m): 7:50am On Feb 25, 2018
If your theme can't handle it, you use inspect element to know which syntax is doing it then go to style css and make the changes

I changed this for a client
