Underlined Links

Client Joined: Dec 04, 2004 Posts: 757

Hi all since the upgrade I have noticed that many links on my front page are underlined.
Never really bothered me until a member today moaned that it was harsh on the eyes.
Is there an easy way to stop links displaying this way ?.
Cheers all

depends on which theme you are using but look for something like:
text-decoration:underline;
and change to:
text-decoration:none;
it may be in form of
a:link,a:active,a:visited,a.postlink{text-decoration:underline;}

or may be associated with a class. Look at your html source and find an underlined link, and see if there is a class associated with it..

this code will be in your themes/yourtheme/style/style.css
and/or your themes/yourtheme/style/Forums.css

some trial and error and page-refreshing should get you there Smile

mrix, I am curious as to what theme you are using as I am surprised this changed on you.

Hi there is was an old theme ClanMTS , the Underlined links were not there before the upgrade.
A member here did help upgrade the theme for me and maybe he made the changes.
But I cant see why he would add them.

Yeah, interesting. Ok, exactly what I wanted/needed to know. I'll poke around to see where we may have added some CSS at a higher level that would have done this.

Thanks for the added info.
