  Hi there – It looks like this is only happening on the front page.

  If I go to a post the links appear blue with hover color grey, like this one: https://earthhope.net/2023/09/21/tiny-but-mighty-fish-bring-marine-life-resurgence-off-long-island/

  To affect the change to the front page, try the following:

  1. Go into Appearance > Editor
  2. Click on Templates, then Front Page
  3. Edit the Front Page template.
  4. Follow this (1, 2, 3): https://d.pr/i/8gxwye
  5. That should reveal the Link color adjuster for H2 heading font on that page: https://d.pr/i/AnXHqt
  6. Adjust that color to blue, with the grey hover.

  This should affect the change anywhere on the page where the H2 is used. Try that and let us know if this does not work.

  Thank you. That worked. I changed it to black with blue hover. Initially, I could only change the small four boxes. The other boxes were showing that I selected blue in the styles menu but would still go red when hovered over. I closed the window and restarted the whole process in another window and it finally worked. Thanks! : )
