@AiD: I checked the source of your site and you have added the link color by adding the following code in custom css box in your theme options
#main a{color:#444;}. You can change that.

Hmm… but I didnt ? 😉 I use only CSS box on page, I don’t use source files.

I added #main a{color:#444;} but it changed color of each link on page, sidebar, etc. I want only to change link color in posts (internal+external) nothing more.

Can you check it again please?

Thanks,

D.

@AiD: As you have link color in main so add the following css.
#main .post a { color: #444; }

@AiD: I see that you have installed sem external link plugin which is overwriting your css. You might need to check their setting and change there.

I did it before and It works fine. I read on other topics about this issue (http://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-the-link-color-in-a-post) but I can’t figure it out. I can only change widgets links color or my post subcject.

Something is wrong in the code/theme, but Im soooo green in it so I need your help.

Once again, I want to change ONLY my hyperlink color external and internal in entries/posts.

Thanks for help.

@AiD: This for external links but I don’t know which class you have for internal link. Send me the details of internal link page. Change the color code as needed in the following css:
#main a.external_icon { color: #444; }

@AiD: try adding internal link in the page and send me that page URL. Then I will check in.

@Aid: Is the text “TUTAJ” your internal link. If so then this code will work for your
#main .post a { color: #444; }

hello,

I am sorry to do this, but I am trying to do the same thing…change color of external links. I have the Simple Catch, I am new to this so in leyman’s terms, I went to custom css under Appearance:Theme Options and added the instruction you gave above with the css color I wanted…but my link is still black.

Thank you!

@beahowel117: First fine the color code that you want to add in http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_colors.asp . Then add the color as per you need. I just check in your site and you have added black color code #000 in the link color. Change that.
#main a { color: #000; }
