We are using the Business PRO template and need to change the *.CSS to make the active links different to the Box headings. We would like to keep the box headings white, but the active links dark grey and visible.  http://www.putneystation.com/joomla/index.php/support/user-access

Hello,

Something like that would require custom css programming; we do not provide those kinds of services as part of our support.

Dear Mike,

Is there anyway that you could quote on the changes to the custom *.css.

Hello,

I am not entirely sure what you are trying to change, is it the "more" text inside of the boxes?

Dear Mike,

Well in fact we want keep the FULL white headings in the boxes, but wanted dark grey active links. URL's. Does that make sense.

Hello,

I'm sorry that doesn't make sense. The headings are not related to any links, so they would not be effected by link changes. In your picture what is the name of the module you are trying to change, and what is the exact text of the area? I need something specific to identify what area you are referring to. Also, your website does not load, it keeps giving a time out error.

If you want every hyperlink on the page to be gray you could try adding something like this in index.php right above the closing </style> tag:

a {
color:#333333 !important;
}

Hello,

That's what I stated above, it will change every hyperlink. I would not recommend trying to change hyperlink colors, there's not an easy way to change those without it effecting every part of the site. If you want specific modules or areas to have specific hyperlink colors you can do that by specifying the surrounding ID, but I would not recommend doing it in mass.

Also, I am looking at your picture and would not recommend making any changes at all. The blue color looks good on the links. Gray is not a normal color for links, and most users will assume that it's not a link and will assume plain text instead. Hyperlinks are almost always a bright color, like the blue you have now.
