Does anyone know how to use CSS to change the color of the link in the caption for journal old style? Thanks.

Please post a link to the gallery with details about what you want to change.

Here is a link to my site http://wallacehuostation.smugmug.com...3593388_jvrhq2. Currently the color of the links is grey, in which I want to change them into blue.

Thanks!

Add this to your CSS:

.gallery_23593388 a:link { color: #61B9EC; }

Change the color code as desired; I just grabbed one of the blues from your site but I'm not sure it's the one you want to use.

That page is showing blue links for me. What text did you expect to see changed that isn't?

Sorry for not being specific. I meant the links in the description area as in:

Swordsman 笑傲江湖
Xing Ming Shi Ye 刑名师爷

Thanks

Ah, I think I see. If you had already visited the link it was shown in gray. Try this CSS instead:

.gallery_23593388 a:link,
.gallery_23593388 a:visited  { 
    color: #61B9EC; 
}

Working perfectly! Thanks so much Denis!

I have just found out that if I put these codes in CSS the color of the links in the description did change, but the problem is that this would also change the color of my nav bar accordingly as well. So I have decided to take the codes out....

Make it specific to the captions.

.gallery_23593388 .caption a:link,
.gallery_23593388 .caption a:visited  {
      color: #61B9EC;  
}

I tried to put some links in the description area in the old journal style such as in

Swordsman 笑傲江湖 as Linghu Chong/Yang Lian Ting 令狐冲/杨莲亭
Xing Ming Shi Ye 刑名师爷 as Meng Tian Chu 孟天楚 edit

The default color is gray but I want to change the link color to something else.

If I put the following codes in CSS this not only change the color of the links but also the color of the nav bar. However, I don't want to change the color of the nav bar other than just the links themselves.

.gallery_23593388 .caption a:link,
.gallery_23593388 .caption a:visited {
color: #61B9EC;

I add that CSS and the links in the caption change to the blue. The navbar color stays like they were
only changing to the blue on hover.

Strange...it's working now!

Hi Allen

If I want to change the color of the links in more than one old journal style pages (created several journal old styles), should I repeat the codes for other journals? This doesn't seem to be working... any trick to this? Thanks for your help! Appreciated!

I would guess you'd just change the CSS to cover all "journal old" style pages.

.journal .caption a:link,
.journal  .caption a:visited  {
       color: #61B9EC;   
}

That's right! Thanks for that!
