XF 1.5 Need to change link color in confirmation message

[EasyExpat]

Hello,

When new user receive their confirmation email to validate their account, the confirmation link at the bottom is small and even worse: it displays in light grey. So every so often I have newly registered not seeing how to confirm.

How can I change:

• the color of the link (most important)?
• make it bold/larger?

Many thanks in advance

In Development/user_email_confirmation I had the following code:

<p style="margin-top: 0">{xen:phrase user_email_confirmation_body_html,
    'username={$user.username}',
    'board=<a href="{xen:link canonical:index}" style="color: #176093; text-decoration: none">{$xenOptions.boardTitle}</a>'}</p>

<h2 style="font-size: 14pt; font-weight: normal; margin: 10px 0 4px"><a href="{xen:link 'canonical:account-confirmation/email', $user, 'c={$confirmation.confirmation_key}'}" style="color: #176093; text-decoration: none">{xen:phrase confirm_account}</a></h2>
<div style="color: #176093; font-size: 13px; margin: 4px 0 10px"><a href="{xen:link 'canonical:account-confirmation/email', $user, 'c={$confirmation.confirmation_key}'}" style="color: #176093; text-decoration: none">{xen:link 'canonical:account-confirmation/email', $user, 'c={$confirmation.confirmation_key}'}</a></div>

<p>{xen:phrase thanks_for_registering}<br />
{$xenOptions.boardTitle}</p>

Therefore I guess all my links should be darkblue (#176093) but this is not the case...

Since you've flagged this as XF 1.5 it could be different (seriously - it's time to upgrade)..

..but in 2.0+ there's an Emails section within the Style properties where the text and link colors are defined.

I know we could upgrade, but there are many reasons, including many customisation, that prevent us to do so currently, therefore it concerns 1.5 I'm afraid. I cannot find similar things on 1.5 (re- the Email section with styles)

I actually found the response to my question.

First of all, the reason why I had issues to change colors of links in emails was entirely my fault, and due to the fact that I have installed an addon called Email Customizer (unfortunately this resource has been removed and is no longer available for download). So the customization of all colors is made in UCP>Appearance>Email Customizer: Email Styles
(great plugin BTW)

In addition (for those asking), in order to change the size of the confirmation message, then we need to be in $config['debug'] = true; and then UCP>Development>Email Templates>user_email_confirmation

<h2 style="font-size: 15pt; font-weight: bold; margin: 10px 0 4px"><a href="{xen:link 'canonical:account-confirmation/email', $user, 'c={$confirmation.confirmation_key}'}">{xen:phrase confirm_account}</a></h2>

Voilà!
