@phillycontemporary: The color options is built-in in Pro version. I recommend you to upgrade to Pro. But if you want it in Free version anyway, it can be done with Custom CSS. Go to Dashboard=> Apperance=> Customize=> Theme Options=> Custom CSS box and add the following CSS:
/* blue box behind the search bar icon on the top menu */
.site-header .social-networks li .fa-search {
background-color: #ffff00;
}
/* blue hover color on the ‘Read More’ button on the featured Image slider */
#feature-slider .more:hover {
background-color: #00a3e6;
border-color: #00a3e6;
color: #fff;
text-decoration: none;
}
/* blue color of all hyperlinks in page/post text */
a {
color: #00a3e6;
}
/* color of the footer navigational menu item text */
.footer-b .footer-nav a {
color: #ff00ff;
}
Note: Please change the colors as desired.
