How to Change the Contact Color on a Tumblr Theme

Tumblr is a free online blogging platform that allows you to create and customize your own Internet blog. Tumblr allows you to place a “Contact” or “Ask Me” link on your blog’s sidebar, which other users can click to send you messages or questions. Because this is a link, you must change the blog’s CSS link code in order to change the “Contact” link color. You can edit your theme’s CSS code from your Tumblr dashboard.

Instructions

    • 1

      Log in to your Tumblr account and click the name of your blog.

    • 2

      Click “Customize Appearance” in the right menu to navigate to the customization page for your blog.

    • 3

      Click the “Edit HTML” button to view your Tumblr theme HTML code.

    • 4

      Find the sidebar link color CSS code block. This will start with “.sidebar a {” followed by a color code.

    • 5

      Replace the color code with a six-digit hexadecimal color code. You may need to reference an online hexadecimal color chart to choose a color code.

    • 6

      Repeat the process for the “.sidebar a:hover {” if you want to change the contact color when a mouse cursor hovers over the link.

    • 7

      Click “Update Preview,” then click “Save” to make the changes to your Tumblr theme.
