When editing, my organization url is white on a dark green background. My Design links is set to white also. The previews have it correctly as white. When I do a test send, the url is changed to bright blue underlined. It is very hard to see on the dark green background. Please help! We have branded colors and do not want the bright blue underlines url. Thanks!

Hello @SallyS352 ,

 

You may need to check the settings of your email program or browser, to see if it's forcing links to turn blue (and purple when clicked). These kinds of settings on the receiving end will always try to override any formatting we try to send through, and isn't something we can therefore control.
