Index + Exhibit

I need help.
I want to mantain a background in my links when I open that page,
I removed the "menu" from the style.css, I tried:

1. ul li.active a { text-decoration: strikethrough; }

I'm searching in the forum but I'm having trouble finding a post related to this matter, thus I hope this is the right place where to post this.

I'd like to customize the link and pretty easy so far. But is there a way to have custom styles for the main menu and another style for the navigational links in the pages?
Adding a custom a.name:link {...} it's easy, but how can I modify the source page to add the new class to my href tag?
Where may I find that page? is bby chance this one? INDEX.php?

Thank in advance for any help.

I'm not sure I understand the topic of this thread - if ou guys elaborate a bit.
Anyhow here's a few rules that apply for #menu...

1. #menu a:link, #menu a:hover, #menu a:active, #menu a:visited {....} 

Hey,
Just wondering if it is possible to change the color of just the underline, not the entire link. For example, i am looking to have white font with a blue underline for my visited links.

CSS:
a:visited { text-decoration: underline; color:#0066CC }

Any suggestions?

1. a { text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 1px solid transparent; }
2. a:hover { text-decoration: none; border-bottom-color: #0CF; }

Just search the web for these things...

Hi,
I followed the instructions given to customize my menu bar, but they don't seem to be showing up on my site. I am on sample mode. I went to the sample folder and opened the style.css file in text edit, I than made these changes:
a:link { text-decoration: none; color:000000; background: #7FFFD4; }
a:active { text-decoration: none; }
a:visited { text-decoration: none; color: #708090; }
a:hover { text-decoration: none; color: #000000; background: #FFFFFF; }

I then went in to Cyberduck clicked on the style.css folder and uploaded the edited version, refreshed, and my site did not change. I then tried dragging the edited file in to the sample folder, and still nothing has changed.

I need HELP.

thanks. my website is www.rachelbussin.com

Hey guys I'm trying to make my 'unvisited/link' colour a different colour from the default blue but it just wont change the a:link colour at all. The decorations seems changeable but not the colour and all the other parts (a:hover etc) work fine

a:link { text-decoration: none; color:#9FC4D6; }
a:active { text-decoration: none; color: #9FC4D6; }
a:visited { text-decoration: none; color: #9FC4D6; }
a:hover { text-decoration: underline; background: white; color: #9FC4D6; }

Have I done something wrong?

ohhh fixed it!

Hi. I'm currently building my site and am having trouble with getting the links to change color. I don't know what's going on. My css responds to everything but the link color for some reason. I'd really appreciate another pair of eyes taking a look at it. Thanks.

...whatever you're doing it's not really working... - I suggest you check out those two red links in the Useful threads post.

I know I probably have a basic problem, but I already understand basic css. This same css is working on my blog. The peculiar thing is that the visited and hover tags are working just fine, but my links are that default blue color until they're clicked.

this is my css:

a:link { text-decoration: none; color: #6703ad9;}
a:active { text-decoration: none; color: #6703ad9;}
a:visited { text-decoration: none; color: #6703ad9;}
a:hover { text-decoration: underline; color: #6703ad9;}

is there anything wrong with it?

Uh! I figured it out. I have 7 characters instead of 6 in my hex value for the color. Sorry, I'm an idiot.

hi there...

i've read all the post for this question but can't find an answer.

i would like to have a colour for a link, and another and unique one when it has been visited, or active or hover.
i would like to add a strike on a visited link.

so i wrote in sample style/css this
a:link { text-decoration: none; color: #666666 }
a:active { text-decoration: none; color: #00FF66; }
a:visited { text-decoration: line-through; color: #00FF66; }
a:hover { text-decoration: none; color: #00FF66; }

doesn't work.
i can't understand.
thanks for helping....

menu link or not ?
site ?

my website can be seen her

www.celinevache-olivieri.com

i don't understand the other point "menu link or not ?"
sorry

céline

ok i meant:
www.celinevache-olivieri.com
sorry
i was tired

edited : an email address is not a link
;)

and… it's working, no ? I see line-through links, but the "visited" ones are exactly the same than the "active" one.

hey, yes it is!

it was something i had to check with firefox.

thanks a lot, it could have taken so much time, if you didn't tell me it was working...

have a nice day

Eurêka, I've understood!

As with everyone else, I am having problems. :)

My style.css looks like this:

a:link { text-decoration: none; color: #c60; }
a:active { text-decoration: none; color: #000; }
a:visited { text-decoration: none; color: #c60; }
a:hover { text-decoration: underline; color: #c60; }

I can change parameters for link, visited and hover, but changing values for the "active" portion does not seem to do anything. This is what I want: When a user clicks on a link to go to one of my pages, I want the user to know which page that they're on by the fact that the link they just clicked is now underlined. Am I under the wrong impression that changing this a:active line will do that? If so, what else do I need to do to make that happen?

Thanks!

I think you look up what a:active does...
The selector you want to affect is #menu ul li.active

hi arsondpi,
How do I change the hyperlink of the photo in the slideshow ?

this might be easy... what do i change to get my nav area to be the same after clicking an exhibit?
meaning, my css is fine on the home page, but if i click an exhibit it defaults back to another css where my changes haven't been made.

ie: font color is the same as the background

thanks

actually , any exhibit under the "artists" section is where this happens. weird

this might be easy... what do i change to get my nav area to be the same after clicking an exhibit?

After clicking? You mean the visited state? It's in the default style.css file isn't it? Just change the color for it...

Maybe I don't understand the question though...

ok... if i click on an exhibit under the artists heading, the nav section is the same color as the background. if click on blastocyst, my title color turns the same as the background

done, had to add code to menu.
thanks

i have to say that this particular thread has very much opened up my understanding of css. just wanted to say thank you to everyone for contributing, and especially to vaska and eatock for sharing this fantastic tool.

Hey,

Like many others I am having a problem with changing that standard blue color.

I changed the underline, and the change was immediately reflected on my site. But when I make any change to the visited color, it never changes on my website. Furthermore, when I click on sections, they momentarily change to red, although I do not know where the code is for this.

I have read through this thread, and tried many of the previous advice given. I copied the style.css folder, made the changes and uploaded them. Still, the colors do not change. I am using sample. As far as I can tell I have done everything correctly. Help!

My website is www.timothydollard.com (I just got started, it isn't anywhere near complete!)

Thank you!

this is what you have in your stylesheet:

1. a:link { text-decoration: none; }
2. a:active { text-decoration: none; }
3. a:visited { text-decoration: none; color: #000000; }
4. a:hover { text-decoration: none; }

Obviously if you don't define colours they fall back in the browsers' default colours...

haha thank you very much. That is logical, and I feel very stupid.

I edited my colors in my style.css file via Coda but it's not appearing on the web. When I change the setting to Sample my webpage is blank and some weird code pops up. Any suggestions?

But, you still have things using the Eatock template set. Go into Exhibits > Settings and switch your template set to "Sample"...then you should start seeing the changes.

I switched it to Sample and this is what happened:
http://www.sabrinabanta.com/
help?

This is because you destroyed the original Sample template file - just upload on that has not been edited. See what happens then...

I still don't understand! Where's the original Sample template file? All the changes I've been making are in the style.css file which is under the 'Sample' folder.

/ndxz-studio/site/sample/index.php is the template file for that folder.

And I see no reason why you are !!!!!'ing at me.

So I'm supposed to be editing the CSS in the index.php file?? I'm not yelling at you! I'm just simply confused. I appreciate all your help so far I'm just a dummy when it comes to HTML and CSS.

In Useful Threads there are two links in red. Usually, we tell people to read these before they do anything - could be good info for you.

You edit CSS in the .css file. The 'index.php' file in the Sample folder is the template that actually displays your stuff. The .css file control how that looks (for the most part).

And calm down...the !!!! is not going to help you get anywhere any faster and it does seem rather impolite towards the people who are trying to help you.

I didn't mean to put the ! to offend you. I was just trying to emphasize my confusion. I do appreciate all your help.

Anyways, I've been editing everything in the .css but I'm so confused as to what I do with the index.php. Do I just leave it alone? I'm just confused why the changes aren't showing up and when I change it to 'Sample' it's blank.

Just reupload the /ndxz-studio/site/sample/index.php file to the 'sample' folder. And then proceed from there...one step at a time.

I did that and nothing changed.

Yes, nothing changed because you did not follow my first instructions (above).

Go into Exhibits > Settings and change your template set from "Eatock" to "Sample".
