Hyperlink not underlined or color change

[LPCoder]

I have flagrant, 1.1.13SMF and when we make a hyperling using code:
the words then the hyperlink is there and working except for that it doesn't change color or have an underline. I would like it to change color. Only an underline appears if you hover.  There is no indication otherwise that it is a hyperlink

How do I do this?

this ant a Theme problem ... i think?
.. does it do the same with Default Theme ??

[LPCoder]

The default theme always automatically made the words a different color so we would know it was a link. Is there some way to make it work

Example link:

link to this page

This is how it should look, but it looks like regular text.

Where exactly are you referring to, the links that are posted??

When someone posts a link in a topic.

OK, In the Post a Reply box, there is the ability to insert a hyperlink by clicking on the icon. Then the hyperlink normally shows up as a different color to indicate it as a hyperlink, just as I did above.

See SMF BBC's Here

Look for the hyperlink icon. That is what I am talking about. Look at the code I just did to make the hyperlink above. When viewed, it is a different color and has the underline. This was always done automatically.

With Flagrant, it is not changing color or underlining to indicate that the word is a hyperlink.

I hope I am clear?

Is there some way to fix that?

Check in the admin settings (SMF) and see if you have the WYSIWYG Editor enabled, if you turn this on the default BBC will be WYSIWYG, so when they/you want to add a link you just hi-light the word/s and click on the URL/insert Hyperlink icon, a small Field window will open where you may add the link or copy and paste link URL!

Other things you will find is the ability to remove formatting and also switch to HTML mode>!
You will also be able to cut and paste from one webpage article direct to your BBC/post, in most cases!

and while you have the word hi-lighted you may bold the word/s at the same time!

Considerations, this makes it easy for spammers to add their junk to your forum so. you need to keep a close eye on that!
another is copyright material can be placed by your members this you may not want either!

Hope this helps!

I think on each theme there are settings to enable/disable that very thing .. I think ..
....   but in No\Way can a "(theme)" cause this .. it has to be in Admin Settings somewhere..

OK ,
i looked at my 1113 install and what it is , i have the Links and Text-Color the same .. that dog want hunt... √√
..so you could do like the default:

Code Select Expand


/* Normal, standard links. */
a:link
{
color: #476C8E;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited
{
color: #476C8E;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover
{
text-decoration: underline;
}

/* Navigation links - for the link tree. */
.nav, .nav:link, .nav:visited
{
color: #000000;
text-decoration: none;
}
a.nav:hover
{
color: #cc3333;
text-decoration: underline;
}

-- make link color what you wanna..
