wondering if anyone can help, on our site when a button is clicked the link turns purple, which doesnt blend into our background too well. wondering if anyone knows how to fix this??

thanks for any replies in advance

You need to declare the a:visited state for the link.

In the actinic.css look for the a:link

a:link {
color: #ffffcc;
text-decoration: none;
}

and make it

a:link, a:visited {
color: #ffffcc;
text-decoration: none;
}


assuming you want it the same colour as the link. Note the color: #ffffcc may be added via the actinic variable ... still simply add the a:visited after the a:link (note the comma after a:link)

Go to 'Design | Themes | Advanced Themes Configuration | Colour Scheme' and set the 'visited link' colour in here.

Tracey - will that place the a:visited {} back into the stylesheet as this is physically missing from the actinic.css and not just the color:

will that place the a:visited {} back into the stylesheet

No, if it is missing from the stylesheet then just changing the colour in Design | Themes, will not write anything into the stylesheet. Sorry, I didn't realise that you'd actually checked his stylesheet. My suggestion is the way to do it if the stylesheet is unedited.

I was thinking that would be a very clever trick

The a:visited pseudo is there for the .technical classes etc but not the global a:visited which the section link is using
