    You appear to not have a style for the links so as a result yes it is going to default.

    Try this:


    a, a:link{
    color: #ffffff;
    }
    a:visited{
    color: #ffffff;
    }
    a:hover{
    color: #ffffff;
    }

    I listed hover and visited separately as ideally you’d show those states with a colour variation even if a slight one of #eeeeee or something.

    Put the code in your stylesheet / child theme preferably would be one to have this (don’t know what set up you are using). It should then work otherwise please post back and say where put to aid diagnosis.

    ty for your fast reply karma

    i added it to the (my) theme style.css

    NO change ….

    if you visited my site you can see that all links are white or orange or green (link visited hoover)
    BUT they do not get accepted in BP…

    i hope you have an idea…

    ty again regards

    awe

    @ Karma

    i found where to put it…

    bp template pack
    bp.css

    that seems to work

    ty again for your help

    First thing, you need a child theme if you haven’t already created one. Doing a quick search online should find directions on how to do it if you need.

    Second, In that child theme you need a CSS file to make changes to your buddypress site’s style.

    Third, there is a buddypress file called default.css where all the default styling is set up. In many cases your CSS file and the default file will have conflicts, but not to worry…there is a solution.

    Using code from karmatosed from above, I’ve added a couple of modifications.
    a, a:link{color: #ffffff !important;}
    a:visited{color: #ffffff !important;}
    a:hover{color: #ffffff !important;}

    Hope this helps!
