 * Hi,
 * On my page I would like to remove the underlines every time I hover over posts
   that are popular or recent.
 * I tried using this CSS but doesn’t work:
 * .colors-dark .widget-title a:hover {
    text-decoration: initial; box-shadow: initial;
   color: #ccc; }
 * Thank you in advance.

 * Are you sure that the default value (that you get with the keyword `inital`) 
   doesn’t imply underlining?
    Have you tried `text-decoration: none;` ?
