problem with underlined hyperlinks
Permalink
Yes I know this has been addressed here:
http://www.concrete5.org/community/forums/chat/how-to-remove-hyperl...
but it does not work for me.
I have changed the css file of typography but it does not change anything. I tried with main css file but no difference there either.
When I go to the Source Page of my hyper link the file I think I should edit appears to be index.php/tools/css/themes/simple_blue/main.css
However this file does not appear in my Manage Files (and I have enabled Show Hidden files).
So any suggestions?
(as a more fundamental question, I am using hyperlinks to create menus on my website. So imagine all the items on the menu of my website are underlined, so messy and ugly. Is there any other way to do this - adding menus/subpages - which might not end up with an underlined hyperlink?)
Thanks

Your second question: in c5 menus are best created using the "auto-nav" block type. If you use it, just put
in the css file of your theme.
ul.nav a {text-decoration: none; }
in the css file of your theme.
Thanks but none of these worked. In fact I realised even when I change the color code in my css file it does not affect anything!
Perhaps I am looking at a wrong file but it is all I can see.
I have looked at main.css and typography.css in /public_html/packages/theme_simple_blue/themes/simple_blue

okay, I managed to do something, I write it down hoping that it can help some one else, just as I learned a lot from other people's notes.
I did not manage to remove underlines from hyperlinks in Simple Blue. However I found an easy way to remove it from some of the other themes. as it seems like many of the available themes (at least the free ones) have hyperlinks underlined by default, this can help:
In the dashboard, click on Custom underneath the theme you want to activate:
Do you see Add Your CSS in the list of available options?
- If not, then this solution can not work for this theme!
- If yes, then copy and paste this to the CSS box (courtesy of MattGreyDesignhttp://www.concrete5.org/community/forums/chat/how-to-remove-hyperl... Save it.
a, p a, li a, a:visited {
color: #999;
text-decoration: none;
outline: none;
}
a:hover, a:active, a:focus {
color: #FFF;
text-decoration: none;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: normal;
font-variant: normal;
outline: none;
}
Hope some find this helpful.
