Important After upgrade to 1.5.4, Hovering, Visited Links broken.

Hello!

I just upgraded from Kunena 1.5.3 to 1.5.4.

1) After upgrading I have noticed that hovering is not working. It was working fine in 1.5.3. I have tried this with various templates that came with kunena.

I have modified default_ex to suite the site design.

I have modified this many times:
#Kunena a:hover {
color:#791900;
}

but the color changes are not taking effect.

I have done this before with 1.5.3 and everything worked fine.

2) The visited links are also not working

3) Earlier, I was able to set the color of the topics individually. Now they are just being inherited by my joomla template.

The green color, I believe is coming from:

#main-body .mainbody-surround a, a {
color:#658E15;
}

of my joomla template.

I am using the exact same kunena.forum.css file that I was using with 1.5.3 with no modifications. The hovering is not working even with the default_ex template without any modifications.

I have tried this with FF 1.5.2 and Safari 3.1.1 with similar negative results.

See the problem here:

Please help.

Add the !important attribute to your hover pseudoclass, thus:

#Kunena a:hover {
color:#791900 !important;
}

Thanks a lot for the help. I was really loosing sleep over it.

But I still dont understand why we need to do so? It was working fine before...anyways.

Now, I need to figure out how to change the green color of the topics. Like i said in the last post, its inheriting it from the joomla template.

How can I override it?

Thanks.

Intuitively (I am sure you can check this for yourself) you would use the same approach as I described earlier. Find the a:visited, a:active, a:link CSS pseudoclasses in the kunena.forum.css file and add the !important attribute to whatever colour you want.
