# Hyperlinks Not Underlined

 * When inserting a hyperlink, the text color changes (barely), but the link is 
   not underlined. I know it’s the old-school hyperlink designation, but if possible
   I’d like to turn it on.
 * I’m using the latest version of WP. The only other areas that might be affecting
   this are Customizr (Skin #5A5A5A), WP Edit, & JetPack.
 * I’ve poked around quite a bit and haven’t found a setting.
 * Thanks in advance.

 * Correction – the hyperlink is not underlined until mouseover.
 * I would prefer it be consistently underlined.

 * Hi,
 * You can go to WordPress admin -> Customize -> Global settings -> Links style 
   and effects
 * Enable -> **Display an icon next to external links
 * Although you do not have the underline hyperlink, you can have an icon that indicates
   it’s a link.
 * Hope this helps.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi Denzel,
 * I have that enabled, and I find it appropriate for external links.
 * For now, I’m simply using the manual text underline. Not the answer I’m looking
   for, but it works.

 * Hi flabeachbum,
 * Thanks for sharing! Using a manual text underline is a brilliant work around!
