    I'm using this code:

    a:hover {
    	color: #F6991D;

    to try and achieve an orange hover with my text links. But for some reason it isn't working. The hover color doesn't change, regardless of what color I try in the code.

    Thanks for this. Well, it doesnt' work. The code they are suggesting

    a:hover {
      color: hotpink;

    is the same code from the magazing pro css. But it doesn't work on my site. When I hover over the link, it stays the same color blue as the link, which is set by the previous block of code in the css file:

    a {
    	background-color: inherit;
    	color: #289fce;
    	font-weight: 400;
    	text-decoration: none;
