 * Hello there,
 * I’m having difficulty changing the hover link color in the widget area. I’m privately
   hosting the site.
 * I’ve tried to type this in the Custom CSS but it hasn’t changed anything:
 * .widget-area .widget a:hover { color: #dd8080; }
 * Hope you can help me out.

 * Greetings…Not to worry, I will definitely help you out and get this working for
   you. The one thing I need to know though is what sidebar position is the widget
   in that you are trying to change the hover colour for the links?
 * ….what I will do is try this on my local test site and see if it’s a bug in the
   code, but to also find a solution for you.
 * Oh, also, what widget is it?

 * I’m about to call it a night here where I am, but I’m going to take a guess at
   a possible solution for you. Add this to the Additional CSS tab in the customizer
   and then add your colour value to it.
 *     ```
       #left-sidebar a:hover, 
       #right-sidebar a:hover {
       color: #000;
       }
       ```
