Changing the Colour of Sidebar Widget Links

    Hello,

    I’m looking to change the colour of the links/post titles in my Recent Posts widget (sidebar 2) from blue to black. My username contains the website’s URL.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    Hmmmm… love your site!! I’ll have to spend some time over there. What do you know about a single daddy going to grad school?? 🙂

    To adjust your links, try this in your custom css:

    a, .post-title, .post-title a, #comments > h4.current a {
    color: #000080;
    }

    This hex color will adjust the normal state color.

    a:hover, .post-title a:hover {
    color: #1919C8;
    }

    And this will adjust the hover state color.

    Thanks Josh… It’s nothing special really, just a humble niche site 🙂

    Your code worked, thank you.

    Whoops, responded a little too soon.

    As it turns out, that code turns all the links on the site into the chosen colour. I just want the links in the sidebar widget to be black, whilst keeping the content links dark blue.

    Any ideas?

    Oops… sorry about that. I forgot to isolate it to the sidebar. Try this:

    #recent-posts-4 a, #recent-posts-4 .post-title, #recent-posts-4 .post-title a {
    color: #000080;
    }
    #recent-posts-4 a:hover, #recent-posts-4 .post-title a:hover {
    color: #1919C8;
    }

    I think that should do it.
