Change Link Colour

[russ_94]

I know this has been posted a million times before but I still can't find an answer...

How do you change the colour in the links? At the moment, my categories on the right are green, and all other links are blue then change to red when scrolled over.

I have searched many of my files, and have used Developer Tools in Google Chrome, still no luck.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Ru,
Edit your stylesheet.css

Find this:

a.category-top, a.category-top:visited {
color:#008000;
text-decoration:none;}

1. #00800; is the fix

Thank you, you have been a major help to me, just ask if you need me to do anything for you sometime. And concerning the last thread, I have removed the white section and I am reading about changing classic right now

Ru,
Awe, that is nice, and that is what Easter is For.. Giving....

This will help you also...

1. Download and install FireFox (if you don't have it already)
2. Install Firebug (an add on for FireFox)
3. Go to your site in FireFox, under Tools, start Firebug and Viola!
you can play with your css to your hearts content. In Firebug, you can select your css, then select the element you want to change, and edit. Changes will be shown in real time without actually modifing the css, so you can see if your changes give you the desired effect. Once satisfied, go to your real stylesheet and comit the changes.

Even I can do a little bit of this, so that means most anyone can as well.

You can find FireFox and Firebug here. www.mozilla.com/firefox

Good Luck

Use the FIREBUG and DEVELOPER TOOLKIT add-ons to Firefox browser to help you find relevant style classes and ID's within the template.

You can also perform off-line edits to CSS using these tools, allowing you to see what changes will apply when you edit CSS components.

Hi, just downloaded it :)
I just tried to remove the congratulations... bit from my main page, but I think I, by accidental, removed something I wasn't meant to from index.php. My page won't load now. Do you know what's wrong with the code below?

Thanks again

Ru,
Use your FTP program and upload a original .php file you just hacked...

Remember to leave the single quotes with the wording your are trying to remove..

'Congratulations! You have successfully installed your Zen Cart&trade; E-Commerce Solution.'

Right way: remove the wording and leave the single quotes

''

[russ_94]

Hi, I removed the quote marks, but I don't have an original of the php, it was created when I installed Zen Cart earlier today. I am currently talking to Just Host about restoring the original file, but thank you for the suggestion.

[haredo]

Rus,
Just edit the file and place them back in..

[haredo]

Ru,
Here it is just copy and paste, then upload
