Theme Styles for Typography → Body override Theme Styles for Links! I have normal text and a link text widget. If I change typography of body elements, the link changes, but doesn’t change when Theme Styles → Links is changed.

Hi @pauserratgutierrez,

You’re right, I was able to reproduce it as well. I have added this to our internal bug tracker :beetle:

Hi @charaf

Just a +1 to let you know more people are experiencing this.
Can’t style all the links on a website, and it’s worse since they’re main CTA (no buttons)

@charaf wanted to provide more context since this is keeping a project on hold for me:

The theme styles for Body do not override theme styles for Links. Actually, the “Text link” element does not inherit any styles from the “Theme > Links” panel. These styles apply to inline links inside a regular “Basic Text” element though.

With more inspection, it seems the styling set under “Theme > Links” is applied to all links with these classes except the “Text link” class which is “brxe-text-link” which should be the first one to inherit it:

Hopefully this can help debug the missing link between the styles and the element, no pun intended.

Hi Pau,
We just stumbled across the task for this problem… :smiley:

Since Bricks 1.10, you can extend the link selectors in the theme styles, which solves your problem:
