Can the underline color in a text link be changed in Webflow without altering the text color?

TL;DR
  • Select text link in Webflow Designer, adjust text color in the Styles Panel.
  • Add custom CSS in the Project Settings' Head Code section, specifying underline color.
  • Apply the custom class to the text link and publish the project.

Changing the underline color of a text link in Webflow while keeping the text color unchanged is a specific styling task. Here's how you can achieve this.

1. Use the Custom Style Option

  • Select the Text Link you wish to modify in the Webflow Designer.
  • In the Styles Panel, go to the Typography Section.
  • Set the text color to your desired choice if you haven't already.

2. Add Custom CSS for Underline Color

  • Open the Project Settings and navigate to the Custom Code tab.
  • In the Head Code Section, add your custom CSS. For example:

  ```css

  <style>

    .custom-link-underline {

      text-decoration: underline;

      text-decoration-color: blue; / Your desired underline color /

    }

  </style>

  ```

  • Replace "custom-link-underline" with your specific class name.

3. Apply the Custom Class

  • Return to the Webflow Designer and select the Text Link again.
  • Assign or add the same custom class (e.g., .custom-link-underline) to the link.

4. Check Published Site

  • Ensure you publish your project to see the changes reflected on the live site.

Summary

To change the underline color of a text link without altering its text color in Webflow, you should add a custom CSS class that specifies an underline color. Apply this class to your text link, and ensure the custom CSS is added in Project Settings.
