    Hello! Thanks for everyone’s help so far, it has been extremely helpful.

    I have some more questions that have popped up:

    — How do I change the color of the read more button?

    –When you click a post, the featured image appears on the left with the title etc. There’s also a box that contains the post’s categories (so for instance I have categories fashion and travel). How do I change the color of this category rectangle?

    Thank you!

  • Could you provide a link to your site running Dyad so folks can take a look directly? If your site isn’t yet live we can work off the demo but it’s better if we can see what you’ve already done with your site so a live link is preferred. Thanks!

    Oh no, how do I do that correctly? I thought I did

    I don’t see a URL in your post above. At what web address can people see your site? Something like http://mysite.com

    I have an identical question. Specifically how you can edit the color and the mouse over color.

    Below is what I have tried so far:

    http://keto.therowdyhelpdesk.com

    /* Read More */
    .posts .link-more a:hover {
        text-decoration: underline;
    }
    
    .entry-content .link-more a {
        background-color: white;
        color: lime;
    }
    
    .link-more a {
        background-color: blue;
        color: lime;
    }

    Should have waited just a little longer. I found the solution:

    /* Read More */
    .posts .link-more a:hover {
        text-decoration: underline;
    }
    
    .entry-content .link-more a {
        background-color: #fff;
        color: #174800;
    }
    
    .posts .hentry:hover .link-more a {
    	background-color: #174800;
    	color: #fff;
    }

    Sorry about that, I finally found how to make it live. Still getting to know everything on wordpress, haha

    miscluci.com is my site

    Thank you Rowdya22 by the way, I’ll try that out!

    rowdya22 – glad you figured out how to get the effect you want, thanks for sharing your solution.

    misslucyloo – thanks for providing the link to your site. Let me answer your first question; I’ll answer the other separately in another reply.

    — How do I change the color of the read more button?

    These two pieces of CSS – similar to what rowdya22 provided – should change the button background and text colour. Try adding it to your custom CSS — and of course replace the example colour codes with your own.

    /* Background and text colour on Read More links */
    .entry-content .link-more a {
      background-color: #bb00bb;
      color: #000000;
    }
    /* Background and text colour for hover state on Read More links  */
    .posts .hentry:hover .link-more a {
      background-color: #000000;
      color: #ffffff;
    }

    –When you click a post, the featured image appears on the left with the title etc. There’s also a box that contains the post’s categories (so for instance I have categories fashion and travel). How do I change the color of this category rectangle?

    I looked at this post on your site as an example and came up with this custom CSS to change the category rectangle that’s currently blue:

    .has-post-thumbnail .entry-meta .cat-links {
      background-color: #bb00bb;
      color: #fff;
    }

    Change the background and text colours to your preferred shades.

    Let me know how it goes.

    Thank you so so much Kathryn! That worked perfectly! I appreciate all your help

    Wonderful, glad that did the trick!

    Feel free to start a new thread if you need help with anything else – I’ll mark this one as resolved.

    I would like to remove the box containing the post categories completely, is that possible?

    saskegg – thanks for starting a new thread, you’ll get a reply there: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/dyad-category-page-title
